Does anyone have a few Crocosmia corms they'd like to get rid of? I'll pay shipping or trade you for something Very Happy I was going to splurge and buy the whole plant at the nursery but they had sold out. I bought a little pack at Home Depot but they were all dried up and nasty Sad
Thanks
Deanna
Very Happy

I have the Crocosmia - Emily McKenzie.
Not as many came up as I planted so I am going to be stingy right now Wink But I can send you some in the fall when they go dormant and maybe have multiplied, I have to move them anyway with the garden rearranging.
