For new plantings
1. Dig a hole one and a half times wider than the plant's container
2. Place plant in hole, keeping the top of the root ball ground level
3. Back fill with dirt
4. Water thoroughly and then mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds
New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering.
Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.
Care Instructions
To care for an Agapanthus plant, start by planting it in a sunny, well-drained location. Water it regularly and fertilize twice per year. Cut it back to the ground in the winter to help promote new blooms in the spring. Prune off any dead flowers and remove dead leaves regularly. In very warm climates, mulch around the base of the plant and provide supplemental water during the summer. Avoid wet, soggy soil, as this can lead to root rot. With proper care, your Agapanthus plant can thrive and bring many years of beautiful blooms.
