moved house so new garden. This grassy looking stuff came up a month or so ago. I used the picture this app, says it’s African flag. I dug some up today and there are bulbs attached. Could it be wrong / something else . Blind daffodils ? I am clueless as new to gardening but loving it 😍
what do you lot think ?

Crocosmia, possibly?

Yes, looks like crocosmia to me.

Download the SEEK app - that will tell you most species with a photo

Crocosmia for sure, lovely plant.

Plant apps are merely matching photos and can make stupendous mistakes. Always use them as a starting point not as a final answer.

In this case the app was right, that is Crocosmia, which apparently is known as African Flag, though Ive never heard it called that in the UK. Most apps have a US bias.
