Joanie,
We have had a huge clump of Crocosmia Lucifer at our MG display gardens for
more than a decade. We are supposed to be Zone 5a, but of late, more like
Zone 5b. I've personally tried both Lucifer and Emberglow a few times but
no real luck having them return the next year.
As to Campanula Camgood, I knew it by its trade name Blue Waterfall if it's
the one I'm remembering. It didn't do that well for me, maybe it was just
where I planted it. Being a Serbian Bellflower, I'd have thought it would
do well here. Another one I do have good luck with is Campanula 'Birch
Hybrid' whose parents are C. poscharskyana and C.
garganica. It's an RHS award winner and I have a bank of it in a very
tough spot but it continues to do well. The flowers don't last as long as
I'd like, but the bright, intense shade of blue is beautiful.
I usually find MOBOT's cultivation info to be pretty much
right on the money for me:

Subject: Re: What to do about image theft
& Crocosmia & Campanula poscharskyana
Hi, Chris...I've been wondering if anything was going on about this.
Interesting info about chasing down hijacked images. Maybe the fella who used
your photo didn't heist it from you but perhaps did so elsewhere and from
there attached his copyright. Have you been able to contact him?
I've taken a chance on zones and put in some Crocosmia 'Walcroy'...has
anyone tried Monbretia in or near zone 5a? If so, any tips on growing it?
Also, some Campanula poscharskyana 'Camgood' which I'm lead to believe
will become a 4 foot wide 8" tall mat in 3 or so years, blooming from May
through August...does anyone have experience (and guidance) with this
campanula?
Thanks in advance for any help with these plants.

As a
follow-up, I just sent the DMCA takedown notice, so we'll
see what
happens!
What's more interesting to me is that Google allows you to
search
for image theft as well. I searched at
http://images.google.com/
for
http://www.hort.net/profile/ros/rosru/main.jpg
and it came up with
two pages of stolen images. Tineye (the
commercial service) came
up with one single stolen image.
*NOTE: You have to click on
the camera icon before pasting the
URL for the photo.
The other
sites are all in foreign countries, so copyright
enforcement becomes a
lot more difficult.
What's even more interesting to me is that
some of those
other sites are using the stolen copy that
davesgarden.com
had.
Anyhow, I thought you'd appreciate an
update...
Chris
