Description

Agapanthus hybrida ‘Peter Pan’, also known as Lily of the Nile or African Lily, is a hardy, dwarf evergreen variety forming neat clumps of green strappy leaves and lavender-blue flowers held above the foliage in summer. Sterile and non-invasive, it is a responsible choice for Australian gardens. Excellent for borders, driveways, and large pots where a compact, low maintenance plant is desired.

Key Features:

Compact dwarf habit ideal for borders and small gardens.
Long flowering season through summer.
Strong resistance to heat, humidity, and frost.
Low maintenance and drought tolerant once established.
Excellent for mass planting and container displays.

Growing & Care Guide

Soil: Grows in most soil types; prefers well drained loam or sandy soil.
Light: Full sun to semi shade; full sun encourages best flowering.
Watering: Moderate during establishment; low water needs once mature.
Fertiliser: Apply a slow release fertiliser in spring for lush growth and blooms.
Maintenance: Remove spent flower stems and divide clumps every few years.
Flowering: Summer-flowering with lavender-blue heads above evergreen foliage.

Landscaping Ideas

‘Peter Pan’ is ideal for creating vibrant borders, edging along pathways, or mass plantings that deliver colour and texture throughout summer. It pairs beautifully with contrasting foliage plants like Lomandra,Dianella, or silvertoned shrubs, and also performs well in decorative pots and modern courtyard settings.

Expert Tip

After flowering, trim spent stems close to the base to maintain a tidy clump and encourage fresh foliage growth.
