Crocosmia – Planting Seeds
Q: I have tall crocosmia flowers. Can the seeds be saved for starting next spring? When should they be thinned out?
A: Plant crocosmia seeds now, mimicking the natural cycle of the plant. In a good location, your spring sprouts may produce flowers next summer. You can dig the bed and thin out plants in winter.
