I was going to repot my agap in a bigger pot but had quite a shock how hard it was to separate the clump. In the end I trimmed some of the roots and just left it alone. I laughed when I saw you using a tomahawk 🤣

These are too large. They become a noxious weed once they flower and will spread. This method of removal will leave rhizomes behind which will regrow.

@Plantobsessedjen3 ай бұрын
As long as it’s not completed flooded now will be fine. It’s good to plant them when there is rain as they’ll have enough water to establish and won’t get forgotten about like in summer. Just don’t let them get supper wet for too long.

Hi Tracy, I just planted a new agapatha, it's been in the ground about 4 days now Suddenly I have white coloration on the ends of leaves and they are drooping. We live in zone 9 Las Vegas nevada usa..its been in the the 90s. The plant was a hood size but somewhat root bound. I prepped the soil with good soil, amend and peat moss. I soaked it good initially. It has one hood dripper but I've been hand watering it each morning since it's new and hot out. It's in direct sun most of the day. I had a smaller one next to it that has been there over a year doing well. Im wondering if I'm overwatering or if it's a fungus as I watered from the top these first days? It's hard to know water requirements here in the desert..I've killed many plants by overwatering. Help? I wish I could send a pic.
@Plantobsessedjen3 ай бұрын
Hi there, it sounds like it could be in a little shock. I would suggest trimming the leaves down so that it’s got about 6 - 12 inches of green showing above the soil depending on the size it is now. Trimming the leaves will help the plant focus its growth on the roots and getting it established. Best of luck
@mrincentives3 ай бұрын
This might seem like a dumb question but I think I accidentally have 2 or 3 different sizes of agapanthus (all blueish purple ones) and I need to move the shorter ones to the front. If a plant is younger are the leaves thinner, smaller and shorter and get larger every year till maturity or can you still tell young plants apart by your video?
@Plantobsessedjen3 ай бұрын
They are going to look smaller because younger ones are smaller but the leaf colours and structures will remain the same. Just concentrate on matching leaves for the same plant. If you make a mistake you can always pull them out later and replant. They’re very hardy so moving them won’t cause too much stress

Don’t clip them, just let them keep growing roots. As they over grow the space, start to increase the container size. They won’t like to be trimmed down.

Thank you for you comment. Check out this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJLQeWNpjKmij9Usi=SZywZeA1fe_GYT08 it will help you with dividing your Aggies. I try to divide into clumps with a mixture of mature and baby aggies if there are babies. It will give them the best chance of survival. If there are no natural gaps for division you want to choose a path that looks like it’ll have the least victims and seperate from the bottom soil - not the top leaves. This will allow the plant to seperate without the loss of many aggies in the process. Once the plant is replanted in smaller clumps, it’ll have more space to grow and have more nutrients available to it and will give you more flowers as a reward. Best of luck
@littlesistersoaps76535 ай бұрын
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your agapanthus videos! I have not looked at all of them yet but I have a potted Aggie that is huge and root bound. The problem is that there really aren’t any channels, maybe one, and most of them are babies. It also didn’t bloom at all last year. 😢 My thought was to divide the few big ones off the babies in one clump and then keep batches of 4 or 5 babies together, trim the roots and leaves and hope for the best! But now I’m wondering if perhaps you have any suggestions?
