Sandra I think Crocosmia are the same plants as Montbretia but Lucifer is usually under the name of Crocosmia?

That is very pretty, is it hard to care for?

Not a a bit, dont do anything pop it into the ground and it very quickly settles in, makes quite big clumps and is very hardy!

I bought 8 corms Pp and planted them in two tubs....only one flower though between them so they'll be going in the garden later.

I think I bought mine as an established plant Janey and had flowers almost straight away, but Im sure yours will romp away once the settled in the garden..
