    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A group of hybrids with fiery hues from yellows to oranges to reds, appearing in late summer. Erect, sword-shaped foliage forms a wonderful fountain of green surrounding the strong, arching flower stalks that hummingbirds enjoy. The plants will multiply for a truly striking show. Best grown in fertile, humus rich, well drained soil in full sun. The plants can be grown as far north as Zone 5; however, below Zone 7 corms should be lifted each fall and replanted in the spring.
