Hi Paul, I have never heard of a pink agapanthus. The only colours I know are the purpley blue in darker and lighter forms and the white. If there is a pink one I would love to know! Does anyone else know?? Dee.

There are a couple of pink forms available now. I bought Crystal Drops on e-bay from a Qld person. Lovely plants, quite reasonable. Seeds would most likely not reliably produce what you want - possibly revert back to white.
The flowers are more white than pink - just have pink highlights. Very pretty.

Hi Erin, I have a lot of crocosmia, habranthus uniflorum, some crocus. Most of the chasmanthe and yellow daffodils have bloomed and developed big leaves already so they might not fit as well in a box but if you are interested, I could try with a medium flat rate box. I'm interested in any aster, buddleia, stokesia, plena elegans clematis or blueberry.

Germinating agapanthus seed

Haven't looked in on this forum for quite a while, I see RexEdwardFairy's question is now months old. More a matter now of "how did you go" I think? The only thing I'd say is don;t get your hopes up regarding colour. The new "pinks" are a result of years of hibridization and extreme patience and the only sure way to replicate the parents is then by cloning (division or propagation by tissue culture). However, of course, the variations were obtained from seed to start with so there is no saying you won't get SOMETHING different. It's just that in my own experience the only ones to come true from seed are the plain old blue or white (or the minis of the same - I had success with some white seed years ago and after multiple divisions now have quite a nice lot of little bulbs)

Looking for pink agapanthus sellers in Perth

Well I know of one wholesale supplier but don't think they sell to WA. However I saw some newly in today in the Masters, Nerang, Qld store marked "strawberry Ice" or something similar, a few plants per pot. If you have a Masters near you, perhaps you could ask if they can check with the Nerang store who supplied them and if your nearest store can get some in for you - probably cheaper for them as they would be more used to the import process from other states. If you need more info you can email me thru my page, I might be able to find a code for the grower and see if it's someone who will send to WA

Have one here with the pink tips. Strawberry Ice is my one. There is a chap from Perth selling the seeds on ebay. Jim someone. He has posted on here before. I have bought from him as well and his seeds are recommended.
