Agapanthus Dwarf White

No reference read gives this listing growing needs of its own, and the agapanthus page sets out the genus's. NC State plants agapanthus in well-drained soil, warns of root rot where it stays wet, and says a potted plant flowers best once rootbound. Weeds Australia says the garden agapanthus tolerates damp to very dry ground and flowers mostly in late spring and summer. No reference read gives a frost figure for it.

Weeds Australia describes the dwarf forms as the typical plant made smaller, and the Australian Plant Census lists Agapanthus praecox as naturalised in four states; Victoria's advisory list rates its subsp. orientalis an environmental weed of very high risk.

NC State lists agapanthus for borders, mass planting, containers and cutting gardens; no reference read gives a dwarf white listing uses of its own. Missouri's figure for dwarf hybrids, about 46 cm, is a class figure for the genus's dwarf forms, not a measurement of this listing. For a named white form with the company's own figures, see Perpetual Peace; for the white listing, white agapanthus.

Because this is a listing rather than a cultivar, ask the grower which plant it is and how tall it flowers. Weeds Australia says agapanthus seed travels by soil, wind and waterways and in dumped garden waste. For the roots, pests and hardening off to check in nursery stock, see the HortOS guide to nursery plant quality. The table above shows the sizes growers list. Stock moving between states travels under the state and territory biosecurity rules like any other plant.

No reference read speaks of a dwarf white listing's poison separately. For agapanthus generally, Weeds Australia calls the leaves and roots poisonous and able to ulcerate the mouth, the Australian National Botanic Gardens' poison plants portfolio lists the leaves and bulbs of Agapanthus orientalis, and NC State gives the genus a low poison severity for people.
