I am not sure who it was from, but I wanted to know what the name was. It is blooming, and it's the perfect orange for me, love it. Thanks

If it came from Lucy, it's Crocosmia 'Lucifer'. Mine is blooming as well although, the flowers are about half their normal size. Next year the plants should top out at about 3 feet with larger blooms.

I think I took some orange Crocosmia to the trade. No idea of the name. I also got it at a trade! I think Lucifer is the red version?

I know it's early for the Spring trade, but I guess I never replied to Pam about the orange crocosmia. Yes, I would like more. Of course, I was outside cleaning up yesterday, pining for Spring.
