Agapanthus, commonly known as the African lily, is a perennial plant native to South Africa. It features long, strap-like leaves and produces clusters of trumpet-shaped flowers, typically in shades of blue or white. These flowers bloom in summer and attract various pollinators, including bees and butterflies. Agapanthus thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. It is often used in gardens and landscapes for its striking appearance and ability to tolerate drought. Additionally, Agapanthus can be grown in containers, making it a versatile choice for both outdoor and indoor settings.
