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.
Crocosmia ‘John Boots’ (P-1981)
Each 11.50
Dutch nurseryman Willem Heemskerk introduced this blithe hummingbird darling in 2000, though some speculate it was originally raised by Paul Boots. Upright grass-green blades and graceful arching stems boost panicles of starry, flat-faced canary-yellow blooms with wide-spaced petals, paler centers and golden flip sides. Ideal for a border or container, ‘John Boots’s ebullient blossoms and burnt orange seed heads make stellar additions to cut arrangements.
