Crocosmia 'Bressingham Dark Fire'
Crocosmia 'Bressingham Dark Fire' is a striking perennial combining dramatic dark bronze foliage with vivid red flowers flushed with golden-yellow at their centres. Bred by the renowned Bloom family at Bressingham Gardens, this eye-catching variety brings bold colour and architectural interest to summer borders.
Flowering throughout summer, the graceful arching flower spikes rise above the rich foliage, creating movement and attracting bees and other pollinating insects. The vibrant blooms are excellent for cutting, while the decorative seed heads also add interest to fresh and dried flower arrangements later in the season.
Thriving in full sun and moist but well-drained soil, 'Bressingham Dark Fire' is hardy, reliable and easy to grow. Its compact habit makes it ideal for mixed borders, prairie-style planting and tropical-inspired garden schemes, where the colourful flowers and dark foliage create a spectacular contrast.
