Description

Crocosmia ‘Lucifer’ is a stunning and reliable summer-blooming perennial, prized for its vibrant red flowers that rise above tall, graceful foliage.

Perfect for adding height and color to summer gardens, this easy-to-grow Crocosmia works beautifully in mass plantings, alongside ornamental grasses, or as a striking cut flower. Whether planted in borders, along pathways, or in pollinator-friendly beds, Crocosmia ‘Lucifer’ delivers fiery brilliance year after year.
