Agapanthus ‘Donau’
The stripey flowers of Agapanthus ‘Donau’ capture attention at the front of the border and make great cut flowers. The large flowerheads measure up to 15-20cm across, each carrying around 40-60 florets. Deep violet buds open into pale blue flowers, each marked with a dark blue central stripe. Plant this deciduous perennial along the edge of a dry, sunny border where its clumps of strappy green leaves lend textural foliage interest long before the architectural flowers appear. It also makes a drought-tolerant specimen for a patio container. Height: 80cm (31in). Spread: 45cm (18in).
