This doesnt have bronzed leaves, tho when I bought it, it did. I don't recall buying another yellow crocosmia. The flower head faces upward and its a tall plant with quite large leaves. Found the label...this is ROWELLANE YELLOW. Clean forgot I bought it. Not vigorous for me tho..still only one stalk after second year.

This is slow to increase DD, and my Lucifer romps too..devil looks after its own lol!..suggest you dig up a few corms and plant them singly through other plants (Carol Klein!). If it takes off flowering wise in one place you know that where to put the rest lol!

Glad you like it Drc and good luck if you get it.
