Indigenous to the southern African continent, Agapanthus (common name 'Lily of the Nile') is a truly gorgeous genus of herbaceous plants, perfect for almost any style of garden. So assuming you wish to have them in your garden the chances are that you have taken the opportunity to purchase bare root specimens in the spring, therefore avoiding the far higher purchase prices of established pot grown plants when the weather improves.
So to find out how to plant and grow bare root Agapanthus check out English horticulturists Simon guide in this video.

Greeting's from Ireland, I bought two agapanthus in the local garden centre four years ago they were in bloom at the time. One was blue and the other one was white with blue tinge's. That autumn I divided each plant into four making eight plants and kept them in the greenhouse over the winter and they survived. I planted them into pots in the garden not expecting them to flower but they did. I feed them tomato food every week from mid April up to August. I bring them in to the glasshouse over winter.

Hi Nicholas and thanks for sharing your experience with us. We'll done with your successful propagation. I hope they give you a decent display this year. Kind regards Simon

Thank you Simon. I agree difficult to find good compost. As for peat. I think the powers that be want to make it more difficult for us to grow our own 😢

@walkingtalkinggardeners 6 месяцев назад

I agree with you. There have been some articles recently claiming that home grown produce is bad for the environment as it produces more CO2 than current farming methods. Now why would they publish that...?

Hello Amadea and welcome to the weirdness of me and Lorna. I hope you will be happy here. Lorna told me to write this. Simon 🙂

Thanks, searching for which end up brought me here. Turns out I planted upside down, mistook the stringy bits for roots, no growth showing when received. Unposted to find no roots, but some white shoots growing out from the strings bits. So turned it over, hoping for the best.

Good luck with that Leonard, they shouldn't really be packaging these without a new shoot emerging but hopefully you have it all sorted now. Good luck, Simon

Great video, beautiful natural scenery, however I'd get rid of the music as it seems very distracting and artificial in a garden.😜👍

Thanks for your supportive comment Audrey. Kind regards Simon

I’ll be growing Agapanthus for the first time this year, thanks for the video! We still have peat mixes freely available in Canada, and our peat bogs are really well managed. It’s too bad it has acquired such a toxic reputation in Europe, because peat can be harvested responsibly. I know that wasn’t always the case, so I suppose the damage (to the bogs and peat’s reputation!) is done.

I loved the old peat based composts, especially Levingtons, which was superb! Good luck with your agapanthus. They should do well for you. Simon
