The original Agapanthus 'Peter Pan' was a plant selected from A. orientalis var. minimus by Jimmy Giridlian at his Oakhurst Gardens in 1949. Unfortunately, this plant has been propagated by nurseries for many years by seed and it is possible that the original Giridlian plant was lost. There also is considerable variability in the seedling crops in the nursery trade and because of this in 1993 San Marcos Growers selected one particularly nice plant and from that point on propagated all of our crops vegetatively from this one clone. Initially we called this plant 'Peter Pan Select' to distinguish it from seedlings crops we were concurrently growing while building up our stock and this is how it is listed in Wim Snoeijer' s book "Agapanthus; A Revision of the Genus", but now with only the one clone in our nursery we have returned to labeling it simply 'Peter Pan'. 

This information about Agapanthus 'Peter Pan' displayed is based on research conducted in our horticultural library and from reliable online resources. We also will relate observations made about it as it grows in our nursery gardens and other gardens we have visited, as well how the crops have performed in containers in our nursery field. We will also incorporate comments that we receive from others and we welcome hearing from anyone with additional information, particularly if they can share any cultural information that would aid others in growing it.
