I am giving away 6 carrier bags full of c.crocosmia, and I thought th

Ps, whoever said I was mistaken when I thought I had got rid of the
monbretia was so correct.....

Sheila, PeteC might be grateful for some c.crocosmia, I sent him some
C.Lucifer which failed!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am going to send him some more
this autumn though.

Heavens! If he knows what caused that, he should market it!

Funnily they don't do well here either, we also have had Lucifer for a
number of years but it's not healthy, doesn't increase at all and the leaves
die back immediately it's flowered and look dreadful. Others have gradually
disappeared in the past. Too dry in the summer perhaps.
