crocosmia lucifer

[Flummery]

I have some seeds of the above deep red flowered crocosmia (I assume it will come true to seed unless someone knows otherwise . I'f you'd like some let me know - I'm not looking for a swap - just to spread nature's harvest!

[scared55]

Hi Flum. If you are game to spread it to France, I'll PM you my address with gratitude.

[Flummery]

Game for a laugh! PM me with your address and I'll get them off ASAP.

[Flummery]

As you were! Used my initiative and looked at your blog! Seeds in tomorrow's post (assuming it actually goes tomorrow as against getting back-logged.)

[scared55]

Thanks Flummery - resourceful as well as kind.

Thanks everso.

[GeordieVik]

yes please?

Hi Flummery,

if you've still got any crocosmia seeds left, I'd love a few, if you don't mind. Let me know how much postage was, and I'll reimburse you

Thanks

Vik

[Flummery]

Still got some Vik. PM me with your address and I'll get some off. Not worth worrying about the postage. When I'm poor I'll come and pester you!

[scared55]

Are you going to come and pester me, too? Please

[Flummery]

Only if you're good! (Lets me off for a bit anyway!)

[scared55]

Seeds arrived today Flummery - and beautifully packaged. Thank you so very much.

Soft lad! (As they say back in Lancashire)

OK Flums, fascinated! I think that I might be interested if I knew what it was. The misses is certainly interested in a red flower. Can we have some details please?

The crososmias used to be called montbretia. They have strap-like leaves and vary in height from about 18" to lucifer's 3 ft or more. Flowers go from yellow through the more common orange to lucifer's fiery red. I have it towards the back of a border and it's a stunner. I suspect you'd find it on Google Images. Still got some seeds left
