It is a member of the Amaryllidaceae family and is prized for its striking, showy flowers and attractive foliage. Agapanthus is commonly grown in gardens and landscapes as an ornamental plant.

Agapanthus plants have tall, straight stems with strap-like leaves that form clumps up to 2-3 feet in diameter.
