Notes

'Anna Marie' montbretia (Crocosmia 'Anna Marie') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. Red flowers open from early to late summer, and butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Kwekerij Davelaar bred it.

Pairs well with Autumn Frost hosta, Fountain grass, and Cora Louise peony.
