Crocosmia ‘Lucifer’

Tall arching stems drip with fiery red trumpets above crimped, sword-like foliage. Crocosmia ‘Lucifer’ is well loved for its late summer display that erupts in a blaze of colour as other border perennials begin to fade. This RHS AGM variety is renowned for its vigour and resilience, adding structure and height to sunny herbaceous borders. The tall stems make eye-catching cut flowers too.Height: 100cm (39″). Spread: 10cm (4″).

Culinary note: A yellow dye is obtained from the flowers and then used as a saffron substitute for colouring foods. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
