G'day, fellow flower lovers -
To quote Charlie Brown: Having fun is so much work!!!
One of the $2 perennials I bought a while back was Crocosmia (Montbretia).
Recognized it but know nothing about it so looked it up on the Net.
What I found is a little confusing as to cold hardiness in zone 5.
One site says hardy in z5, another said only if well-mulched, the other said
it needed to be brought in for the winter.
Sooooo, I am hoping some of you may have experience with it.
Please, please, please.
I just can't handle having another plant I have to take in or remember to give
it special treatment!
Thanx for your help.
