Agapanthus Wavy Navy

Agapanthus Wavy Navy is a unique evergreen variety known for its distinctive wavy-edged, strap-like green foliage that adds texture and interest year-round. In summer, it produces tall stems topped with clusters of deep navy-blue, trumpet-shaped flowers, creating a bold and dramatic display. This variety is perfect for gardeners looking to add a touch of character and colour to their plantings.

Ideal for modern, coastal, or cottage gardens, Wavy Navy thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained soils. It is drought-tolerant once established and works beautifully in borders, mass plantings, or as a feature plant in containers. Space plants 40–50 cm apart for a balanced, natural spread.

Mature size: Reaches up to 60–80 cm in height (including flower stems) and 50–60 cm in width, forming a dense, clumping habit.

Trimming: Cut back foliage in late autumn or winter once it has died back naturally. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves during the growing season to maintain a tidy appearance.

Deadheading: Remove spent flower stems after flowering to encourage further blooms and prevent self-seeding, especially if managing invasive tendencies.

Fertilising: Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring to promote healthy growth and flowering. Avoid over-fertilising, as this can reduce flower production.

Watering: Water regularly during the establishment phase and dry periods. Established Agapanthus are drought-tolerant but will benefit from occasional deep watering during hot weather.

Pest Control: Check for slugs, snails, and mealybugs. Remove pests manually or use suitable deterrents.

Disease Management: Agapanthus are generally disease-resistant but may develop root rot in poorly draining soil. Ensure soil is well-draining and avoid overwatering.
