Crocosmia corms are the source of the plant propagation, and in addition, they prefer to be in warm and bright places. A sunny place with good drainage soil would make a great spot. The planting of the corms should be done in spring after the last frost. 

To plant the corms, dig holes that are 7-10 cm deep and place the corms 15-20 cm apart. Each corm should be positioned vertically and then covered with soil. Once the corms are planted, they should be watered thoroughly to get the roots established.

Caring for Crocosmia

Planting crocosmia means you are going to have to do little to no care at all. During the growing season, the plants need to be watered regularly, particularly during dry spells, but take care not to create waterlogged conditions. A layer of mulch will not only retain moisture but will also suppress weeds. Fertilize the plants in late winter or very early spring with a general-purpose fertilizer to promote vigorous growth and colorful flowers.

It is better to deadhead faded flowers than to have them look messy. In addition to that, dried flowers will be less distracting, and the energy can be redirected back to the combs. After flowering, allow the leaves to die back naturally, as this helps to store the nutrients for the next season.

How to Grow Healthy, Beautiful Plants?

Crocosmia Lucifer usually has no pests and is resistant to most diseases. If you live in a cold area, then it's a good idea to cover corms with mulch (=during winter), or alternatively, you can lift and store them in a cool place where they will be dry. Once every 3-4 years, the clumps that have become too crowded should be divided in spring so that their growth remains healthy, and flowering is abundant.
