Description

Enjoy impact from the moment Crocosmia ‘Firestars Scorchio’ blooms! Starry flowers open in rich orange-yellow, each petal marked with a bold red stripe, creating a fiery bicolour effect that blazes across the garden from midsummer into autumn. Recognised with the RHS Award of Garden Merit, this is proven to perform in UK gardens.

As part of the Firestars series, ‘Scorchio’ combines astonishing flower colour with a dense, clump-forming habit. That means this Montbretia isn’t just beautiful the first time it blooms, it builds strength and size over time, giving you more stems and bigger displays with each passing season.

Once planted, they need very little from you, yet they repay the favour with a succession of blooms just when the garden needs them most. They’re fully hardy, drought tolerant once established, and shrug off the majority of pests and diseases.

Plant them in drifts through a sunny border, where their fiery tones mix beautifully with grasses, asters and rudbeckia. The bold, blade-like foliage provides structure and movement, while the sprays of flowers make outstanding cut stems for indoor use.

Supplied as a set of five bulbs, size 8/10, ready to plant.
