Agapanthus hybrid ‘DWAgHyb-02' ~ Blackjack™ Agapanthus very-wet-area and the flowers can lastBlackJack Agapanthus is a compact evergreen perennial distinguished by near black purple flower buds that open to large, deep purple flowers marked with darker stripes. The sturdy flowering stems rise above clumps of green, strap like foliage, carrying loose rounded clusters of flowers from mid spring through summer. The unusually dark buds provide an additional stage of color before the flowers open, giving the plant an extended display. BlackJack
