Description
Agapanthus Brilliant Blue ('Aga04051' PBR) is a new variety of Agapanthus that lives up to its name: very hardy and extremely floriferous, it offers umbels of flowers with a deep blue colour of beautiful intensity. They bloom for three months, dominating a tuft of luxuriant foliage. Not very tall but well-coloured, this variety easily finds its place in all gardens, or in a pot on the terrace. Despite its exotic charm as an austral plant, it is a small deciduous Agapanthus without worries that will thrive in full sun, in ordinary but well-drained soil, not too dry in summer.
Agapanthus plants belong to the lily family and are native to South Africa. Several species have been extensively hybridized by horticulturists in search of new colors, more compact and hardy plants, better adapted to our climates. The Brilliant Blue cultivar was recently obtained in New Zealand. This plant develops and multiplies rapidly from a stump with fleshy rhizomes, forming from spring onwards a dense tuft of linear foliage, of a shiny dark green, with a minimum diameter of 40cm (16in), widening over time. Flowering takes place in summer, continuously from June to August. Numerous thin but sturdy floral stems, averaging 50cm (20in) in height, emerge from the tuft of foliage. At their tip, they bear hemispherical umbels of 10-12cm (4-5in) in diameter, composed of numerous small campanulate flowers. Each flower has 6 petals of a fairly light blue crossed by a deep blue median line, giving the whole a very blue, quite intense colour. The foliage of this variety completely disappears in winter.
Agapanthus Brilliant Blue will quickly become the new star of the garden: with its vibrant blue inflorescences that stand out from a well-filled tuft, it is impossible to miss. In addition to its generous flowering, it is also quite hardy, up to about -12/-15°C (10.4/5°F). This variety will bring an elegant and exotic touch to flower beds. It will easily adapt to many regions that are not too cold, especially if its stump is protected by a thick winter mulch. Whether in flower beds, borders, large rock gardens, pots or containers, Agapanthus is suitable for a wide range of uses. It is particularly well-suited to mild coastal climates. Brilliant Blue is very beautiful when associated with other compact blue, mauve or white varieties in a minimalist setting. It is also very decorative in flower beds with an exotic connotation, along with Kniphofias, Hemerocallis, grasses and Cannas.

Planting and care
Plant Agapanthus stumps by covering them with at least 10cm (4in) of good soil so that they are more resistant to cold. It is essential to install them in spring and preferable to mulch them in winter in most of our regions. For pot cultivation, use 5 young plants for a 24cm (9in) pot and protect your pots in winter. They prefer a rich and moist but well-drained soil, enriched with sand. Water them regularly during the growth period (twice a week). However, avoid watering them afterwards. They fear excessive moisture in winter. This variety is hardy to around -12°C/-15°C (5°F) and particularly thrives in border plantings and containers. Use a sandy, well-drained mixture, slightly acidic. This plant seems to prefer shallow but wide containers and will flower abundantly if regularly fed with slow-release fertilizer.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
