Re: Crocosmia
Thanks for the responses on Crocosmia. I will try it again and will keep
some corms outdoors well mulched and bring some of the cluster in for the
winter. I would love to be able to plant it near my foundation but I don't
have any place near my house that gets enough sun for sun loving plant to
thrive.

'Lucifer'and someorange, dwarf number that was supposed to be apricot. I'm
"allergic" to orange, so it's gonna' get shovel-pruned when I get to it.
