I have nine evergreen agapanthus which I keep in an unheated glasshouse over winter and spring. They are brought out of the glasshouse at the end of our last frost date. I feed them with tomato feed every week from April onwards and I'm lucky they flower every year.

Fortunately, I live in Florida so frost has become foreign to me since I moved from the UK. My biggest issue is usually keeping my potted plants including Agapanthus from drying out. An expat watching in S Florida.

A very timely and informative video I didn’t know that there were deciduous Agapanthus as I only have Evergreen varieties. Look forward to your future video in the spring about dividing and splitting up the plants.

The deciduous one are tougher in a cooler climate and will survive temperatures down to around -10°c.

My potted deciduous agapanthus in Falmouth cape Cod Massachusetts was left outside during a cold snap of 0 degrees F. It did not recover once brought inside, or sprout anything this spring. In digging it up I found a few firm white tubers or bulbs. There were lots of short white roots in the pot, which I disposed of. previous years I had brought it into the garage or basement. do you think the few tubers I planted may sprout?

Deciduous agapanthus are normally hardy to around 14F(-10c) so I suspect you plant may not survive. However if the rhizomes in the centre of the clump are still firm, there is a chance they may sprout new growth. Fingers crossed! Martin

Yes agapanthus will flower every year on the same plant as it’s a perennial. Remember to water and feed though during the growing season. Martin

Would you give a tomato feed on agapanthus??? Great tips many many thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍

OK- Martin's answer: "Yes but not till it’s actively growing between May and September" hope that helps and thanks again for watching P&T!

Do you store the evergreen ones inside or outside? What temp?

In a cold greenhouse and when it was very frosty they were covered with horticultural fleece for a little extra protection. Evergreen types can withstand 4-5 degrees of frost.

Hi , I had agapanthas roots soaking in water for 2 weeks before I planted them, will they survive? Or will they now have root rot? I hope not, they are still green.

Hi, they won’t have liked being in water for so long, but they may be fine now they are planted. Keep the soul moist but not too wet and fingers crossed! Martin
