A bold perennial with pleated, sword-like mid-green leaves. Extremely eye catching, arching, branched spikes of upward-facing, funnel-shaped, bright red flowers appear for 6 to 8 weeks in mid to late summer. Crocosmia are a South African native and prefer moist but well drained soils in partial shade or full sunlight, but will grow in shady and dry locations too. Great in a mixed border, in a large pot and as a cut flower, as it can last up to 2 weeks in a vase. Hardy throughout most of the UK, even in severe winters. Rabbit and deer resistant and usually untroubled by slugs too.
