How to Cut Back Agapanthus

    • 1). Cut back the agapanthus in spring. Remove dead leaves and any stems from the previous season.

    • 2). Deadhead the agapanthus throughout the flowering season to keep the plant from producing seed. Use your gardening shears to snip the flower stem into the foliage.

    • 3). Cut back the agapanthus to within 6 inches of the soil if you live in an area with harsh winters. Dig up the corm, allow it to dry out completely and plant it in a pot of standard potting soil. Store the agapanthus corm in a dark area where the temperature never dips below 35 degrees Fahrenheit and never rises above 45 degrees. Bring the pot out of storage in early spring.
