Cleopatra’s glow up My mom @Oceangirl got me this gorgeous huge #Agapanthus #LilyOfTheNile a month or so ago and she was looking moody. Wanted to repot her to show her off in my front entryway and holy root bound Batman! So we did a #GlowUp with a bigger pot, fresh clean soil, a bit of a root massage, and trimming off the dead blooms and old leaves. Ain’t she gorgeous?! I can’t wait to see her say thank you with new growth over the next few weeks. 🌱☀️❤️

She kept the blooms on her most of the summer but didn’t bloom again. I want to bring her indoors (zone 5) for the fall/winter. Is this ok? #Agapanthus
