Dear Boyce, Over the last few years we have become smitten by Crocosmia. After a couple failures 'Lucifer' is well established and dazzles in mid-summer. Then 'George Davidson' and 'Distant Planet'. In the last year we added about 10 more cvs. We thought we were about at the northern limits. Last weekend we we went to Omaha and saw a big clump of Lucifer at Lauritzen Gardens. This got us to wonder. Does CBG grow any Crocsmia and if so which? Have you tried and lost any? We found single 'dry' corms are very difficult to establish, but kept in a pot for a year to get good roots and 'mother' corms, they establish pretty well. Pot grown cvs are also easy. I wonder how far north these things really are. Any thoughts or recommendations? Best Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd.
