If you cannot make up your mind which Crocosmias to choose for your garden, this is the collection for you. We will select 7 different varieties in 9cm pots that will give you a range of heights, flower colour and shades for your garden, including AGM varieties. These plants can be grown on in larger pots or established straight in the border (subject to the time of year and weather). Full growing tips are included.
The varieties in this collection will include a good mix of varieties, dependant on what is looking good ast the time - I aim to include reds, yellows and orange forms - all from our £5.50 range - both early and later flowering.
A typical mix might include:
ORANGE
Carmin Brilliant - Masses of small reddish flowers
Zeal un-named - Early, large warm orange blooms
Constance - late - orange with yellow centres
YELLOW
George Davison - rich yellow flowers
Columbus - warm apricot
RED
Lucifer - tomato red, tall pleated leaves
Vulcan - scarlet red, more compact
IMPORTANT - THE MIX WILL VARY ACCORDING TO AVAILABILITY BUT WILL ALWAYS BE A GOOD COLOUR MIX
