The crocosmia did very well the first year, planted between the LA's and JI's The following year when the La's and JI's came up the crocosmia did not. We had a warm winter in 2000-2001 so I was surprised.

The beardless area is behind the house and in the winter shadow of the house. It can freeze very solid in that area.

This year I dug up and gave away some versicolor. When I dug up 2 of the 12, water welled up in the holes. The diffference in heighth and breadth of the two in the water surprised me. The iris were a foot taller than the others.
