Crocosmia

Crocosmia

Crocosmia, with their delicate tubular or star-shaped flowers above arching stems, are bold and beautiful with a touch of the exotic.  Also known as “Montbretia,” the flower spikes zigzag to 36” and bloom progressively, starting with the lowest flowers on the stems.  With brilliant late-summer to early fall blossoms and sword-shaped leaves, they are ideal for cut flowers and last a long time in water.  In warmer climes they will form large clumps if left undisturbed.  Crocosmias are popular for their wide range of colors and hardiness.  However, be sure to mulch in late autumn.  Please note:  Germination takes between 3 to 6 weeks, sometimes much longer.   Zones 5-10.
