Description

A wonderful mix of colorful Crocosmia in shades of red, orange and yellow, they love rich, moisture retentive soils and full to part sun. Hummingbirds love ‘em. Can be grown as a perennial in zones 5-9, grow as an annual elsewhere. Crocosmia may not bloom the first season, especially in colder zones, but it is perennial and once established it will reward you with spectacular blooms. Cover with mulch to insulate in winter in zones 5, 6.

Planting & Care

Summer Blooming Bulbs, including popular varieties such as gladiolus and dahlias, are planted in the spring and bloom in the summer. Most of these bulbs are tropical and require warm weather to be planted. There must not be any danger of frost and your ground temperature must have reached 55 degrees Fahrenheit before planting. Many of our summer blooming bulbs can be planted as perennials in zones 9-10 (zone 8 if mulched), but should be treated as annuals in cooler climates. You can lift them and store them in the fall, or bring patio pots inside before frost.

Shipping

As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat.  The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.

Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge.

Beautiful cut flowers!

"I used these in flower bouquets, people loved them they were easy to work with and held up well."

— Debora (5/5)

A-ok with me

"Wasn't sure about this as I have a short bulb growing season plus I do not want to feed the gophers. I planted between the agastache blue fortuna and some coreopsis. I was surprised to get 3-4 scapes that bloomed. I think this should be planted in mass for better effects."

— Julie (4/5)

The headline is descriptive and accurate. Fine.

"The crocosmia, mixture and Lucifer, are marvelous flowering plants. In southeastern Michigan I should have started them earlier to get the longest bloom period in summer when the hummingbirds are most active. I'll change my practice for next year."

— Djm (4/5)
