Description
Spice up your summer borders with Crocosmia 'Prince of Orange' and enjoy the show each year as it sets your garden ablaze with its smouldering good looks! Brandishing rods of exotic-looking, glowing flowers in a molten two-tone of orange and red, each bloom with a unique speckled centre, this dashing new variety is a real looker. Coupled with hardiness, resilience and reliability, once established this garden superstar is a prize border staple to adore, year after year.
Providing a long season of interest, the strong, sword-like foliage of Crocosmia 'Prince of Orange' is an attractive feature in itself – green through the summer months before adopting a beautiful burnt orange hue in autumn. If you’re looking for a vibrant perennial to fill a space in a mixed border, provide low-maintenance interest to a sturdy patio pot or to pad out a narrow border, this charmer is a confident candidate for the job!
* Crocosmia are hardy perennials and flower every year once established. After planting, they will flower from their second year onwards. In the first year they may produce foliage only.
