Montbretia ? That they're now calling crocosmia for some reason ?

That's the chap. They grow from corms, and each corm produces *tiny*
little corms, each of which will grow & produce more corms ad infinitum
....

.... I'm very fond of them (in moderation) because they remind me of
Cardiganshire & they've been very useful for filling in spaces until I
can get something better to replace them.


This guy calls them a weed!

Sticks & stones can break their bones ... I've been called all sorts of
things in my time too, but I just get on with life regardless
