History | Agapanthus is one of the better-known plants hailing from South Africa, first mentioned in literature in the late 1600's. Agapanthus inapertus is found in the forest margins, mountains, and grasslands of southern Africa. The naturally occurring subspecies Agapanthus inapertus subsp. pendulus 'Graskop' was found northeast Transvaal, in the Grasveld, a high-lying plateau (5000 ft. above sea level) that makes up much of the interior of South Africa, and is named after the nearby town of Graskop. Agapanthus inapterus 'HinGrkop' originated from seeds collected by plant explorer Daniel J. Hinkley for Monrovia. The new plant was chosen from a selected group of the seedlings, which were grown at Monrovia Nursery, trialed and evaluated for performance, flower color and form for several years, resulting in this final selection. |
