Agapanthus praecox Willd. is an evergreen plant from the southeastern Cape growing in stony slopes and grassland from the southeastern Cape to KwaZulu-Natal. It can be quite tall and has white to medium blue flowers with stamens as long as the tepals. The first three photos taken by Cameron McMaster in the Eastern Cape.
