In the early spring, I planted a dozen corms of a *yellow*
crocosmia.
( The variety was not specified in any more detail
{:-((
The plants are thriving, with the leaves now approximately 40 cm
long.
They were planted about 1.5 metres from a floriferous group of
"Lucifer, receiving very similar light, and in very similar soil
There is as yet no sign at all of any flower stems. Is it usual
for
newly planted Crocosmia corms not to yield flowering plants in the
year of planting?

Have a bit of patience! Some of my crocosmia have a few flower
stems,
but most of them have no sign at all yet, and you're north of me!

Kay, my worry stems from the fact that my "Lucifer" group is in full
flower and the new ones are showing no sign of obliging. But I'll be
patient......
