Re: Acaena, Crocosmia

I've had Acaena microphylla "Kupferteppich" (Copper carpet?) for 3 
years, and it's done reasonably well here in zone 4/5 with no special 
protection. Looks dead in the spring, but comes back. It spreads, but 
slowly. I like it and its spikey round red seedheads 

Crocosmia 'Lucifer' has done very well and multiplied against the
house foundation in a warm spot. Spider mites can be a problem.
