Agapanthus 'Snow Pixie' PP15,470 (Snow Pixie Agapanthus) - This is a dwarf evergreen plant with narrow bluish-green foliage and very attractive full clusters of white flowers that rise to 18-21 inches tall in the late spring and summer. 'Snow Pixie' is slightly shorter than the cultivar 'Rancho White' with narrower, blue-green foliage. This new Agapanthus comes from Ken Rigney of Southampton Great Britain who collected and sowed seed from a cultivated Agapanthus in Durban, South Africa. This seedling was selected for its short habit and floriferousness and because it remained evergreen when the temperature dropped below 15° F (-9.5C). Tolerant of many conditions, but during growing season and flowering, don't allow plants to dry out. This plant was trialled and marketed in the US by PlantHaven.
