Agapanthus Windsor Grey

Description

Agapanthus ‘Windsor Grey’

Agapanthus ‘Windsor Grey’ is a truly distinctive African Lily, prized for its unusual pale grey-blue to silvery-white flower heads that shimmer in the summer sunshine. The elegant tubular flowers are borne in large rounded umbels on strong upright stems above clumps of lush strap-shaped green foliage, creating a sophisticated display in borders, gravel gardens and patio containers. The unique colouring is enhanced by subtle lavender-grey tones and green-tinted flower bases, giving this cultivar a refined appearance unlike traditional blue agapanthus varieties.

Flowering from July to September, Agapanthus ‘Windsor Grey’ provides weeks of colour and attracts bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects to the garden. Its statuesque habit makes it an excellent feature plant, while the unusual flower colour combines beautifully with ornamental grasses, lavender, salvias and other sun-loving perennials.

This hardy deciduous variety is valued for both its exceptional flower colour and reliable garden performance. Furthermore, it thrives in borders and containers, making it suitable for gardens of all sizes. The long-lasting blooms also make excellent cut flowers for summer arrangements.
