Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A color that transfixes, hypnotizes and then with its floral Siren’s song invariably draws any onlooker in for closer admiration. We’ve seen it happen time after time at the nursery. Few other Crocosmia are this color— a vivid orange peach which turns a glowing salmon pink. A bed of this is unreal. 30” and sun.
