Plant Patent 14,989A stunning breeding breakthrough, this glorious Agapanthus offers not one bloom season a year but a PERPETUAL season from spring until frost! Giant inflorescences arise in great numbers, then self-clean to make way for their successors. If you have ever admired Agapanthus and wished it offered a longer bloomtime, 'Blue Heaven' is the extraordinary answer.
Each flowerhead on these sturdy 3-foot stems is packed with 70 to 80 flowers of rich violet-blue. Excellent as cutflowers and a valuable source of rare blue color in the garden, they begin appearing in late summer above evergreen foliage that is long, strappy, and deep green. But while other Agapanthus content themselves with one impressive flush of bloom, 'Blue Heaven' just keeps going!
A very strong plant suitable for large containers as well as the sunny garden, 'Blue Heaven' is an absolute necessity in zones 8-10, where it is hardy. North of zone 8, it must be brought in before first frost, but with proper winter care will bloom heavily throughout the warm seasons. It's simply too tempting to miss these lavish flowers on compact, sturdy stems!
The foliage forms a nice clump 2 1/2 feet wide well below the blooms, and is evergreen in its hardiness range. An all-around top performer with never-before-seen bloom power, 'Blue Heaven' is an introduction you MUST grow to believe! Zones 8-10.
