Crocosmia 'Lucifer' and a finial.

Evening B. I do like this Lucifer. Think there will be some in our bed before long. :~))

They are very tall, Ian!

How tall sweety?

Hmmm. About 4' - 5' I would say, Ian! I haven't been out with my tape measure though! lol. Could be a bit taller...

Great picture Barbara!

thanks, Pp...just to make a change, really!

I got a lovely surprise today!!!!!!!!!!! :~)))))))))))))))
Thank you VERY, VERY, much XXXXX

5' would be ok Barbara, I think this is definatly one for the 'wanted list'

I'm so glad your 'surprise' parcel came! That was quick - good. ;-) Hope you like them! Are the instructions OK??

You can buy Crocosmia 'Lucifer' as corms in a pack, in the early autumn, Ian. They are sooooo much cheaper grown from corms, although you might have to wait an extra year for flowers. Pots from Garden Centres are really expensive, and I reckon they only put a few corms in each pot! Cheeky, really, it's done for people who aren't aware that they can grow their own so easily, and of course to make money.

I don't know what I would do without you.

The instructions are brill thank you and they are safely potted up in the front garden, recovering from there long jurney.

I wrote a blog about it :~)))))))))))))

That is beautiful Spritz, what a lovely rich colour :o)

Lovely............

Lovely. I started with a few some years ago and now have lots.

That's good to hear, Toto - they need to multiply to give a good splash of colour.

One of my favourite crocosmias...and finials, too. :-)

Found your pic - beautiful - one of my favourites.

Goodness! That was quick! The colour must have jumped out at you. :-)

Spot on :-)
