I bought Crocosmia 'Lucifer' as a potted plant a number of years ago and
planted it in a spot that has heavy clay soil, never been amended and no
fertilizer ever added. It's in a dry corner, full day's sun. It has increased
well over the years.
I've been thinking I should dig and divide it, but all the tales of how hard
it is to grow suggest I should leave well enough alone.
