Crocosmia
Montbretia
Coveted by florists, these brightly colored flowers unfold along the length of tall arching spikes, which emerge from handsome clumps of sword-like foliage. If given well-drained soil and divided every 2 to 3 years, this fountain-shaped plant will continue to pour spectacular color into your garden for a long, long time.
This dazzling Alan Bloom creation is applauded for its sultry presentation of deep scarlet star-shaped blooms, which glow like embers on artfully arching stems. Flowering a little later and longer than ‘Lucifer’ with tidy, more compact green pleated foliage, ‘Emberglow’s nodding tubular flowers deliver flashy accents to Aster ‘Mönch’ and Helenium ‘Sahin’s Early Flowerer’, while the showy fruiting stalks are prized in cut arrangements.
