Through the years, we’ve trialed over 130 different agapanthus species and cultivars. One we currently have on trial that has us in love is Agapanthus ‘Quink Drops’. Not only are the buds near black and the flowers dark blue, but the sturdy flower stalks have reached 5′ tall. This is unquestionably the tallest agapanthus we’ve ever grown–a welcome contrast to all the overly short new introductions. This English selection from nurseryman Graham Gough, is named after a cough drop. Later this year, we’ll be chopping up our only clump to start the propagation process.
Love it. Please put Hardlea Farm on your waiting list.
Sign me up please. As a 83 year old gardener, may I ask you to hurry!
Horticultural propagation has a lot in common with the Supreme’s 1966 song, You Can’t Hurry Love.
That will be on the wish list
This may be the one I am willing to winter over indoors here in Colorado Springs.
‘Elaine’ is another tall growing agapanthus that is a good rebloomer. The color of this new (to me) agapanthus is exquisite. Can we preorder?
We haven’t even started production yet, so there is no pre-order system to use, but glad to know you’re interested.
Golly, that blue flower is so sublime! Hope you can increase your numbers quickly.
