Crocosmia × crocosmiiflora24-36" tall. Glows in the garden!
Midsummer sprays of bright red flowers open from bottom to top on long arching bronze stems, like bursts of flame above gladiolus-like foliage. Lucifer is Dutch for ‘match,’ and in most shops in Holland you can pick up a box of lucifers—they’re kitchen matches.
Grows well in pots. Makes a long-lasting cutflower if you can harden yourself enough to steal them from the birds. Plant in full sun, 3" deep, 3" apart in moist well-drained soil. Ours is multiplying and overwintering with no protection in Zone 5. Colder zones should treat these as annuals.

Additional Information
Tender Summer Bulbs
Spring-planted bulbs offer wonderful variety to the cutflower market and are a staple in old-fashioned gardens. The bulbs we offer here are (mostly) not hardy to northern winters. Smart and thrifty people lift and store them over the winter; the rest of us treat them as annuals.
