Crocosmia

Always a favourite #firstbuds #buds #montbretia #ajjuly

Mine have been a bit swamped under everything else

I have some that are similarly swamped by loosestrife. I need to move them but I keep forgetting! Must remember this year (last famous words)! 🤦‍♀️ @hebelover

You’re very welcome @dpkgujar 😊

Help me identify this plant please. It has very long blade like leaves PlantID #help

Is it a montbretia? (crocosmia)

Yes it is ladies 🧡 @DeborahBanks

Yayyyy thank you @anges I got one right! Whoop 🥳

Thank you so much Deborah and Ange 😀😀 @DeborahBanks @anges

Yay!! Both names aswell 🌟🌟🌟😄 @DeborahBanks

Oh that’s a beautiful flower when fully open 💛🧡

Can’t wait to see it blossom Rula, the colours on the buds already look gorgeous 😊 @sabbanrula

A word of caution, Angela, they can spread and be a bit thuggish 😳 but they’re easy enough to pull out 👍 A lovely colour, though 🧡💛😘

Such a beauty! 😍 please do tag when it's fully open 😇

Morning Barbara! Thanks for the warning. Its very much a learning curve for me. Seems some of the pretty ones can be just as big a thug as some of the more obvious ones! Fortunately this one is in a small contained brickwall border along with loosestrife, there could be fisticuffs!!! 🤼‍♂️ Will keep an eye on it, thank you. Have a lovely weekend 😘 @jacaranda

Thank you Deepak. Yes, I’ll be sure to tag you in when it opens fully 🌸😊 @dpkgujar
