This woman is a stellar presenter. Love the enthusiasm and great information :D

I love Crocosmia, they are highly underated here in the US. They bring hummingbirds and butterflies to the garden.

This woman displayed the difference in hybridized species and was very informative and to the point. Not boring at all.

[@sherrym5556]

Thank you, good information 👍

[@GrannysGarden]

Some great advice there. Interesting varieties coming out from the Isle of Wight. Great colours and the stems look lovely and sturdy.

[@BeautifulOaks]

Thank you for clarifying the different needs. I understand now where I need to improve my plant’s placement.

[@Myrtuscommunis]

Magnificent flowers! 💚😀

I've always been told that crocosmia like plenty of moisture so it was most informative to learn the difference between the two types. One piece of information that would have been useful is why the plant should not be divided in autumn.

Very useful, thank you!!

[@laurasuitter2442]

Thanks for the info! I was not aware there are two types of crocosmia, so this was must helpful! Paul sure has some winners! I’ll have to check for those in them US!

I've just split my crocosmia aurea, after 4 years. After moving into my caravan. This summer flowered for first time. Just beautiful orange. Have mixed in multi_ purpose compost. Hope I haven't ruined it. Kept in pots.

I'm so happy to see this video. Perhaps you can help me with my problem. I do have the Flora type crocosmia. I have three beautiful clumps that I planted 3 years ago. My problem is by the time they bloom they have fallen over. Your advice would be most welcomed. Thank you very much

[@jillberinger2875]

Since the corms appear to be stacked, should they be separated too when dividing?

[@Royaliize]

Hey i got some crocosmias they tend to get yellow leafs? Bad soil? I got gladiolus that does the same. Its kinda anoying snce they are easy plants to take care off.

[@tanyagovender1]

What is a good feed to give them ?

[@maribethcastroparada9676]

My crocosmia leavea suddenly turned brown but flowers are still blooming.Dont know what the problem is. Any advise?

[@tanyagovender1]

Do you deadhead the flowers or just leave em alone ?

[@manishhkr]

Can these be grown in subtropical climate of India?

[@blaqfish]

Is it better to plant in a container or in the ground? Thank you

[@kieranreilly7511]

I’ve just tried an experiment. I’ve moved some in to pots and then planted the pot in the ground to keep them contained.

The unamed one should be named "Naranja"
