How to Plant and Care for Bridal Veil® Agapanthus

Planting Instructions

• Location: Choose a spot with full sun to partial shade. At least 6 hours of direct sunlight is best.
• Soil: Well-draining, fertile soil is ideal. If soil is heavy clay, mix in compost or sand for drainage.
• Spacing: Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for growth.
• Planting Depth: If planting from a container, dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the plant at the same level it was in the pot.
• Watering: Water deeply after planting to settle the soil.

Container Planting

• Use a pot with drainage holes.
• Fill with a well-draining potting mix.
• Water thoroughly after planting and keep soil moist but not soggy.

Care and Maintenance

• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during the first growing season. Once established, water when the top inch of soil is dry.
• Fertilizing: Apply a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10) in spring and midsummer.
• Pruning: Remove spent flower stalks to encourage new blooms.
• Winter Care: In colder zones (below USDA Zone 7), mulch around the base or move containers indoors.
• Dividing: Divide every 3-4 years in spring if clumps become crowded.
