Agapanthus really is a pretty plant but unfortunately, here in Central FL, it only blooms for a very short period of time in early summer. In Los Angeles, we had blooms from May to August and they were very large and lush for that entire time. They also self-generate (for lack of a better term) and can be separated into more plants usually in the fall. I haven't seen that happen here but am hoping in time, this does take place.

I would not cut them back, except what you have already done, take off the dead flowers and stems. What I usually do is cut back the yellowed dead ends of the long leaves and they will regenerate next year. I don't have very much experience with them here in FL but did have a lot of experience in LA.
