Crocosmia Mix
Crocosmia Mix
Mixed Crocosmia adds bold, vibrant colors to the summer garden and bouquets! This random mix may include flower colors of yellow, orange or red. Growing 24-36" tall, the tubular flowers provide color and contrast to the perennial border in July-August—and pollinators love them. Their wiry stems make them ideal for cut flowers. The name comes from the Greek language and means "saffron smell," which reportedly can be detected when dried flowers are submerged in water. Crocosmia look best when planted in groups of 12 or more. Plant in full sun to part shade among your perennials. Non-demanding bulbs will come back each year.

Poor germination
Started them indoors weeks before putting in the ground. About 50% germination. Starting to bloom, all orange. I contacted the company and got partial refund.
Started in pots in spring then moved spikes 2 garden in June
I live in zone 5b, Aurora Colorado, elevation 6000. Bought pkg. 25, started in plastic nursery pots in spring, and then transplanted spikes to garden in June; heavily mulching the beds. I had no issue with almost all bulbs coming up, and some were very small! The big thing was paying attention to the instructions and planting them with the bulb in the correct position. They are tricky because they look almost the same on top as they do on the bottom. Pay close attention and you will have success in planting. In addition, it was about 5 weeks before I saw them pop through the top of the soil. I do suggest pots first and you then know you are getting what you paid for and can also baby them. Do not saturate them, nor let them dry out. Some relief from the afternoon sun also seemed to help. Now they are in the ground and seem to be doing well. I will check back and leave an update closer to late fall. I will mulch heavily in late fall for winter protection.
Disappointed, but patient.
Planted these in various areas and all came up. No flower spikes tho. They are not dying back so maybe something will happen with the monsoons. I live in Mesa, AZ. All bulbs were healthy and in great condition when arrived. Planted with fertilizer in bottom of holes with about 1 inch of dirt between bulbs and fertilizer. Crossing fingers, but may have to wait until next year.

Can the Crocosmia bulbs be grown successfully in pots in Zone 6a? If so, what would be the planting instructions? Appreciate any help. Thanks.
- Asked by Christopher
- Verified Reply - AngelaYou can grow Crocosmia in a pot in zone 6. We suggest moving potted plants to an unheated shed or basement for winter protection in colder zones. You will plant the bulbs about 3 inches deep and water in well. The pot should have drainage holes and the soil needs to be well draining. Don't overwater. When in storage for winter, they will need almost no water. Just be sure the soil doesn't completely dry out. Was this answer helpful to you
