Crocosmia Walbertons Yellow
This specific variety, of the Walberton’s series, has won the ‘Award of Garden Merit’ from the Royal Horticultural Society AGM (H4) 2021.
Exotic-looking, bright orange-yellow flowers stand tightly together in rows on wiry, gracefully arched stems in summer. The elegant stems make wonderful, long-lasting cut flowers and the shorter inter-bud length of this selection lends itself to better floral impact. It demonstrates good vigour, long flowering, and reliable hardiness
