The Agapanthus Polar Ice dazzles with its pristine white flowers, bringing a fresh, bright touch to late-season borders and container displays. Its large, rounded clusters of trumpet-shaped blooms rise gracefully above clumps of narrow, mid-green foliage. Known for its drought tolerance, this variety thrives in Mediterranean-inspired plantings, gravel gardens, and dry borders. It also makes a striking cut flower. The slender leaves provide a beautiful textural contrast to broader-leaved plants, enhancing the visual depth and variety of your garden design. Agapanthus Polar Ice grows to a height of 90cm (35in) and spreads to 45cm (18in).
Growing Information
Grow Agapanthus in rich fertile, well drained soil, in a sunny position. When growing Agapanthus in patio containers use a soil based compost, such as John Innes No.3 .
Plant bareroots at the earliest opportunity following delivery. Should soil conditions prevent planting directly into borders (if soil is frozen or waterlogged), bareroots should be potted up, watered sparingly and grown on in a cool position for planting out at a later date.
Choose a sunny or semi shaded position in moist, well drained soil and work some well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil. Dig a hole wide enough to accommodate the bareroot with its roots spread out and deep enough that the crown of the plant is just a few cm below soil level. Backfill the hole with soil and firm the plant in gently. Leave a slight depression around the plant – this will help to direct water towards the roots.
