The New Black! The best black Agapanthus we have ever seen, Agapanthus ‘Black Jack’ is an exciting new introduction by the renowned Agapanthus breeders, De Wet. An entrant to this year's Chelsea Plant of the Year Competition, we think this gorgeous variety is destined to be a winner! ‘Black Jack’ features silky, purplish-black buds which open to shining, deep purple flowers. Its colour oozes luxury and classic style, blending effortlessly with any palette. The open-facing, tubular flowers are held in spherical clusters, standing proudly on strong stems above semi-evergreen, strappy foliage. One of the ‘Everpanthus®’ series, ‘Black Jack’ delivers long-lasting, repeat blooming over an extended period from midsummer to autumn plus denser and more abundant flower heads than usual. This undemanding perennial is heat and drought tolerant, making it perfect for dry, sunny borders and coastal locations where it creates a bold, architectural statement and is adored by bees and butterflies. Its compact size makes it a great choice for smaller gardens, patio pots or mixed containers. Height: 80cm (31in). Spread: 70cm (28in).
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
