The flowers are up to 5\u00a0cm long and coloured deep orange.[4]Cultivation[edit]In the United States, Crocosmia \u00d7 crocosmiiflora is considered suitable for planting in hardiness zones 5\u20139, but in more northerly locations it can be planted in the spring and the corms dug out in the fall. The corms should be planted in a well-drained garden soil in a full sun to partial shade.[3][5]  The hybrid will set viable seed that can be grown from seed as soon as ripe, but as a hybrid will not breed true.[3]  In Belfast, Northern Ireland it is recorded as well-established in a wide range of locations.[6]There are over 150 named cultivars within C. \u00d7 crocosmiiflora including:‘Babylon’ agm[7] \u2212 orange-red with yellow throats‘George Davidson’ \u2212 yellow [8]‘His Majesty’ \u2212 flowers large, orange‘Jackanapes’ \u2212 flowers orange-red, inner lobes golden yellow‘Meteor’ \u2212 orange yellow‘Solfatare’ \u2212 yellow flowers with bronze foliage‘Star of the East’ agm[9] \u2212 light orange with pale centresThose marked agm have received the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit.Invasive species[edit]Crocosmia \u00d7 crocosmiiflora is deemed an invasive plant in the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man and New Zealand, where it is common on roadsides in the northern parts of the West Coast of the South Island. The New Zealand Department of Conservation classes it as an environmental weed.[10]The California Invasive Plants Council (Cal-IPC) lists Crocosmia \u00d7 crocosmiiflora as an invasive plant in California, with limited concern \/ distribution.[11]It is widely naturalised in England and Scotland especially along the western seaboard from Cornwall north all the way to Sutherland.^ Some sources mistakenly call this a hybrid of Crocosmia and Tritonia; the basionym of C. aurea is “Tritonia aurea“.References[edit]^ a b Parnell, J. and Curtis, T. 2012.
