CROCOSMIA---lucifer
There are 7 species of this clump forming perennial. Full hardy to frost hardy and robust. for me the red is the most stunning of the colours. Flowers and grasslike foliage can be used for cut flowers. When planting corms best put them to the back of the fencing or garden wall. Grows to a height of 3 to 4 feet tall. Plants love rich humus and moist soil. Sun or partial shade. Propagation ----sow seed or divide clumps in the Autum. I usually divide the clumps in Autum.
