Hi, thanks for getting in touch, there is a link below to our 'follow up video' .. in short we started seeing seedlings appearing in early spring ... so about 3 months after sowing the seeds .. but then we had a few challenges! as explained in this video ruclips.net/video/tCfxNny29cE/видео.html
Thanks😀👍, there were germinating last time I was in the school garden (2 weeks ago) due back in tomorrow, so will probably put a picture on the community area of my RUclips channel - and then do a video in a few weeks time (complete with accent!) when they are ready to transplant.
Hi, thanks for your comment, the young seedlings have been transplanted into pots and are growing more leaves, but a few have been eaten by slugs. I will put a picture or video update on the channel soon 😊👍
Actually, I just checked … I did put a picture of the seedlings starting to grow on my community tab on my RUclips channel, you can see that if you scroll down on the community tab … but I still want to do another update as they have grown a bit since then 🌱
Here on the Suffolk coast the ‘evergreen’ ones that I have in pots have self seeded in the cracks of my scruffy patio. We had some frost , one night down to -8C, and a fair bit of rain but they have never sat in water. I have potted some up ....but suspect it will be a few years before big enough to flower.
Thanks Peter, that's interesting yes I can imagine them thriving over there with your drier climate, apparently they can flower with 2 - 3 years .... which is quicker than I would imagine ... we shall see ...
I have agapanthus African Queen, it produced 9 flowering stalks this year and now the flowers are fading I see loads of pods and wondered if you could grow them easy
I don’t see why not … only one way to find out?!😊. We here are you living? … if you are in the uk you may need to wait a few months until you can see the seeds ‘bursting’ out of the pods …
I cut the pods when they were still green and closed. Do you think it will work? I let them dry out and now starting to open them myself to get the seeds out. Very flaky. Is that normal?
Hi, thanks for your comment, the seeds were quite thin and papery…they may have needed a bit longer to fully ripen… but I would definitely try sowing some and see what happens?
Hi i'm in the emerald isle i stole seed pods from a neighbour didn't know what to do with them put them in ordinary seed and potting onto a propagator and 3 managed to survive out of probably 6 seeds
@@timothycrowley5065 They are often sold in bulb catalogues or bulb departments but they are not strictly bulbs ... more accurately roots with a dormant growth bud ... I think!
How long did they take to germinate

Did it work?
Hi thanks for your comment
Yes it did - here is the follow up video ruclips.net/video/tCfxNny29cE/видео.html
Update on the agapanthus seeds? Did I miss it? Following from South Carolina, USA for your information as well as your accent!

I want to know as well!

Hi - just to let you know that I have just put a picture of the seedlings on my community section on my RUclips channel
Please let me know the result of plant agapanthus when the start showing in March please!
Hi, thanks for your comment - we just uploaded an update a few days ago - here is the video ruclips.net/video/tCfxNny29cE/видео.html

Hey - well done you! We have had about 30 seedlings I think, and have transplanted them into individual pots ... great to see them growing eh?
@@rogthegardener1 do agapanthus normally grow from bulbs or are they a different species ?

A tripod and two hands would do the trick.
Thanks 😊
