Crocosmia Mistral
OUT OF STOCK
Slightly arching racemes smothered with hot orange funnel-shaped flowers with yellow throats, creating a fiery look. Ideal for hot themed borders, the flowers of this showy bulbous perennial contrast perfectly with sword-shaped mid-green leaves. Remarkably easy to grow and hardy, the Crocosmia is a popular plant. Its tall upright habit makes it the perfect partner for many flowering grasses. We'd recommend planting with ornamental blue grasses for a bold colour statement. 8/10cm bulbs supplied. Flowering throughout the summer. Height 70cm.

Crocosmia are best planted in fertile, well drained soil in the spring. They can tolerate full sun or partial shade, and best planted in groups. Ideal for border or containers.
