Agapanthus ‘Silver Baby’

Common Name:
Agapanthus ‘Silver Baby’

Description:
Agapanthus ‘Silver Baby’ is a compact, dwarf variety of agapanthus known for its dainty, bi-coloured blooms and clumping, strappy green foliage. Its flowers are a soft white with pale blue edges, giving a delicate, silver-toned appearance that makes it a standout in borders, pots, and mass plantings. This variety is particularly valued for its neat growth habit and prolific flowering, blooming reliably through summer. It thrives in full sun and tolerates part shade, performing well in a variety of soil types as long as drainage is adequate. Drought-tolerant once established and low-maintenance, ‘Silver Baby’ is a popular choice for coastal gardens, contemporary landscapes, and low-water planting schemes in Melbourne. It is evergreen in most climates and also works beautifully as a soft edging plant or underplanting for taller structural species.
