CROCOSMIA CUR LUCIFER
Grower Notes:
Crocosmia curtonus 'Lucifer' is commonly referred to as Lucifer Montbretia. This South African Crocosmia is regarded as one of the hardiest cultivars to-date, and features flame red flowers on gracefully arched stems - perfect for cutting and attracting butterflies, hummingbirds and other beneficial pollinators. Broad, sword-like leaves are attractive even when the plants are not in bloom - adding a tall, textured element to your landscape.
Lucifer Montbretia thrives in full to partial sun in moderately moist, well-drained soils. In time, the corms will naturalize and spread, and can be divided in spring, if needed.
