Agapanthus praecox orientalis 'Snowball'

Common Name:
Dwarf White Agapanthus 'Snowball'

Description:
Agapanthus praecox orientalis 'Snowball' is a compact, evergreen perennial renowned for its stunning pure white, globe-shaped flower clusters that bloom prolifically from late spring to early autumn. This dwarf variety features a neat, clumping habit with narrow, strappy green foliage that remains lush year-round. 'Snowball' is ideal for garden borders, edging, rockeries, and container planting. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil. Highly drought-tolerant once established, it requires minimal maintenance, making it perfect for low-care gardens. Unlike some Agapanthus species, 'Snowball' produces minimal seed, reducing its risk of becoming invasive.
