Hello all,
I am confused with the hardiness of Crocosmia..Many catalogs including
the best plant reference guides say they are(Some: Lucifer,etc)hardy to
zone 6 with wind shelter and mulch.
Would some of you which have grown these sucessfully for several years
(in at least zone 6) advise us what you have done to assure their
success.??It would sure help to know and it would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
