Crocosmia

The Crocosmia is a beautiful, easy-to-maintain flowering plant that gives any garden an exotic appearance. The plant has fiery colors and graceful flowers, which are a beautiful addition to both gardens and flower arrangements.

The Crocosmia originally comes from South and East Africa and was brought to Europe in the 19th century. The name 'Crocosmia' comes from the Greek words 'Krokos' (saffron) and 'Osme' (fragrance), which refers to the scent of saffron released when the dried flowers are soaked in water.
