Yes. The confusion is widespread. As mentioned in the PDF attached in my previous email:
"...even in South Africa, cultivars are mainly traded or linked to *Agapanthus africanus*. In nearly all cases, these plants have nothing to do with this species; almost all are selections or hybrids from *A. praecox*. Even so close to the natural habitat, it seems impossible to get rid of this confusion..." - p. 19, *Agapanthus* - A Revision of the Genus by Wim Snoeijer, Timber Press, 2004.
