| Agapanthus 'Valencia,' or Lily of the Nile, is a tender perennial that blooms in midsummer with sky-blue flowers featuring darker purple veins. The large, 6-inch blooms attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and thrive on long, dark scapes above lush, grass-like foliage. With its mounding habit, 'Valencia' remains attractive even when not in bloom, making it ideal for mass plantings, borders, or as a stunning specimen in containers. This heat-tolerant, deer-resistant plant prefers sunny spots with well-draining, consistently moist soil and benefits from light fertilization in spring and summer.
