Default Agapanthus leaves gone purple!

I have an evergreen agapanthus (Storm Cloud or Dark Storm, got both,
can't remember which this is), planted a couple of years ago. It is
not doing very well, and in particular, this year many of the older
leaves have gone a dark dirty purple over the last few months. It had
a little Growmore in the spring, but otherwise it's been left to its
own devices. See

Any suggestions as to what is happening?

(the orange-yellow-green red-hot-poker-like flowers nearby are Aloe
striatula, one of the hardier aloes, which survives outside down here
in west Cornwall and which has done especially well this year after
the mild winter).
