For the past ten years, we've had the good fortune of ordering thousands of bulbs from A.D.R. each fall to help further beautify Newport, RI. Not only is the quality of the bulbs outstanding, so is their customer service and attention to detail.

Crocosmia Mixed offers a stunning combination of red, orange, and yellow blooms on arching stems, creating a warm-toned display from mid to late summer. Thriving in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, it attracts hummingbirds and butterflies while resisting deer. Its upright, sword-like foliage adds texture to borders, and its drought tolerance makes it a reliable choice for low-maintenance gardens.

Planting: Plant corms in spring after the last frost or in fall in warmer climates. Set them 3 to 5 inches deep and 6 to 8 inches apart in fertile, well-drained soil.
Location: Prefers full sun (6–8 hours daily). In hot climates, light afternoon shade is acceptable.
Soil: Moist but well-drained, humus-rich soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Amend heavy clay with compost or sand for better drainage.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during the growing season. Once established, crocosmia is moderately drought-tolerant.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 6–9. Some cultivars like ‘Lucifer’ are hardy to zone 5 with mulch protection.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) in early spring and again in midsummer to support flowering.
Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage reblooming. Cut back foliage in late fall after it yellows.
Propagation: Divide clumps every 2 to 3 years in spring or fall to prevent overcrowding and maintain vigor.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
