Crocosmia bulbs going free

11 replies

CuttedUpPear · 17/06/2012 22:54

In my line of work as a gardener, this week I'm digging up a large clump of Crocosmia (Montbretia), the bog standard orange variety.

If anyone would like any of this tenacious, pretty, spreading plant, then let me know and I'll post you a jiffy bag full of bulbs for refund of postage alone.

Otherwise they are going in the green bin.

Disclaimer: They do spread a bit. But if you have an area you'd like to plant up and never think about again, this could be the plant for you.

Hello CuttedUpPear

I would love a bulb or so, if you have some left

Just busy levelling my sloping lawn ready to turf at the moment and will have some nice fresh borders to fill in the next few weeks

Hi EmberRainbow
Just PM me your address, I'll be posting them out on Friday I hope.

Still have plenty left!

Interestingly that's three lots of bulbs going up to Scotland now - hope they do ok and I am not blamed for orange explosions all over the place North of the border in the coming years!

Grumpla and countrylifemummy
I think you still need to send me your addresses, unless I've got you mixed up and have already posted to you.
