The combination of the clear lilac-pink flower heads held above the lush green foliage creates a sophisticated and appealing look in borders, containers, and mass plantings. Agapanthus ‘Lilac Flash’ is a desirable choice for gardeners seeking a distinctive and beautiful Agapanthus with an unusual and charming flower color. Its relatively compact size and evergreen foliage (in suitable climates) further enhance its appeal.
