Agapanthus Snowball is a dwarf variety of Agapanthus that produces showy clusters of white flowers in summer. The flowers are held as reasonably tight balls above the strap-like, green foliage. This herbaceous perennial forms a tidy clump as it grows to 40 cm tall and 60 cm wide. Agapanthus Snowball is a versatile plant that can be used as a low maintenance option on drier sites or in situations with poor soil conditions such as a clay bank. It is also commonly used in borders and mixed plantings, mass planted as a groundcover, maintained in a container, included in cottage or “white” gardens, or planted around outdoor living areas.

Agapanthus Snowball Details

Agapanthus Snowball is a dwarf variety of Agapanthus that produces showy clusters of white flowers in summer. The flowers are held as reasonably tight balls above the strap-like, green foliage. This herbaceous perennial forms a tidy clump as it grows to 40 cm tall and 60 cm wide, performing best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of moderate frost, coastal conditions, some wind, dry periods, and heavier soils. Agapanthus Snowball is a versatile plant that can be used as a low maintenance option on drier sites or in situations with poor soil conditions such as a clay bank. It is also commonly used in borders and mixed plantings, mass planted as a groundcover, maintained in a container, included in cottage or “white” gardens, or planted around outdoor living areas. A mass planting is the best way to showcase this plant.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about Agapanthus Snowball (Agapanthus africanus Snowball)? We are here to help.

Hi there, has the height and spread for Agapanthus Snowball been updated since Oct 2024? I'm sure I remember both measurements being around 30cm. I'm worried that the 24 I planted are going to get too big - I specifically chose them for their small size! Thanks, Lauren

Hi, they grow 30-40 cm tall and wide as a general rule over a 5-7 year time frame. They are a clumping plant and when grown with lots of fertiliser and moisture in warm climates they will expand slightly wider than this. They can be "thinned" out after 3-4 years if you are worried they are getting too big.
