Crocosmia Firestars™ Firestarter

Crocosmia Firestars™ Firestarter is a special modern Montbretia with a striking and warm color combination. This decorative summer bloomer forms beautiful star-shaped, golden-yellow flowers with a dark orange edge. The flowers grow in dense, mostly one-sided clusters on long flower stalks. Thanks to its bright colors and elegant growth habit, Crocosmia Firestars™ Firestarter is a real eye-catcher in borders, flowerbeds, and summer plantings.

The fresh, bright green leaves are long, narrow, and sword-shaped, strongly resembling those of a gladiolus. The foliage forms a beautiful contrast with the golden-yellow and dark orange flowers. Due to its upright growth habit, this Crocosmia combines excellently with other summer-flowering bulbs and perennials.

Decorative flowers and seed pods

An additional ornamental feature of Crocosmia Firestars™ Firestarter is the attractive seed pods that develop after flowering. This ensures the plant remains interesting even after the flowering period. The decorative seed pods provide extra structure in the border and can also be beautifully incorporated into natural floral arrangements.

Excellent as a cut flower

Crocosmia Firestars™ Firestarter is also an excellent cut flower. The long flower stems and star-shaped flowers give bouquets a playful and colorful character. For optimal vase life, the stems are best harvested when approximately 50% of the flowers have opened. The remaining flower buds can then continue to open.

With its distinctive flower shape, warm golden-yellow color, dark orange flower edges, and decorative seed pods, Crocosmia Firestars™ Firestarter offers great ornamental value in both the garden and a vase for a long period.
