Crocosmia - Golden Ballerina


Crocosmia - Golden Ballerina

Karen Sue sent me this one it is beautiful and it flowered late, hopefully it will next year too. All the others had finished weeks before this one flowered so I am keeping my fingers crossed it flowers as late again.

Sarah think Karen got them from Hardy's Cottage Garden Plants if that is of help to you. Have a look on their web site and see if you can find it. I am off to look at a garden, later on this month, that has a collection of crocosmias, hoping to buy lots more for my borders :¬0)
