Agapanthus praecox orientalis, commonly known as lily of the Nile, flower of love and African lily is a plant that copes well with our often harsh Australian climate.
Long, strap-like leaves are about 2 cm wide and up to 1m in length.
Flowers are arranged in a terminal cluster and are tubular. They have 6 petal-like parts. The flowers are produced in summer at the end of long, thin stalks and the leaves are present year round.

"Agapanthus praecox" is a native of Natal and Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. The plant is reportedly naturalized in Great Britain, Madeira, the Canary Islands, Eritrea, Ethiopia, St. Helena, Victoria, Norfolk Island, New Zealand, Mexico, Honduras, Costa Rica and Tristan da Cunha.
