Description:

Heronswood lives on! Dan Hinkley’s cultivar ‘Kingston Blue’ crossed with Agapanthus ‘Cold Hardy White’ in my garden about five years ago. From among the seedlings grown from this seed, I selected the most vigorous, best blooming, deep blue flowering plants to create the ‘Kingston Blue Strain.’ Cold hardy and deciduous, this compact grower blooms in mid-summer. Plant in groups of 3 or more to maximize the effect of the plant’s sculptural flowering stems. Mulch heavily in cold winter climates to get the plants well established.
