What says summer better than fireflies? This is Crocosmia ‘Firefly’.
I have all these bulbs and I just can’t bring myself to throw them out in the trash. BTW this is only about half of them I got tired of snipping off the top and the rest are still in a trash bag. I’ll be thinning out three other areas soon. I thought maybe you guys might be able to help me figure out what to do with them. *wink* I wouldn’t think they would produce much nectar, but the humming birds seem to love them.
If I have time, I’ll snip off the tops of the rest of them, if not I may just have to let them go out by the road. If I could find homes for the ones I have cleaned up at least that would be better than throwing them all away, right?

That's a lovely crocosmia and the hummingbirds do love them.
My garden has been taken over by Lucifer, so I can't adopt anymore! :-)
Have a Happy 4th!
Beautiful pictures as usual ! take care, Gina
OOH! Those are soo pretty! I'll take them off your hands!
The blooms look lovely! Wish I could pick some of those bulbs off the monitor...
Randy, As always the pictures are outstanding. Hope you guys had a great 4th. - G
You know I have a thing for orange, so I love these. They're not hardy in my zone though and I'd just end up leaving in the ground and letting the frost kill them, so a "better mother" should adopt them!
Beautiful, Randy! I always love to see your garden
you still have my address? lol
Throw some of those beauties my way. I would love to have them.
In my excitement I forgot to say PLEASE.
They are absolutely lovely. Carla
