With the days drawing out as we head towards summer, now is the perfect time to celebrate the colourful & iconic plants of British cottage gardens.

At Otter Garden Centres, we’re thrilled to continue our plant festival series with our Agapanthus Festival, celebrating their dramatic & colourful blooms. The tall, attractive flower spikes showcase stunning shades of purples, blues and white, providing long lasting colour from early summer to early autumn.

Agapanthus, also known as African Lily, first arrived at our shores in the mid-to-late-17th century after being brought from South Africa to Europe. Since then, they have become a staple of gardens in the South and South West thanks to our mild climate, and will flower year after year.

At the heart of the festival are our Otter Grown Plants—locally cultivated with care and a commitment to sustainability.
