Gold Rush™ Crocosmia

Gold Rush™ is a named Crocosmia with warm yellow flowers marked by orange tones. A grower catalog describes Crocosmia Gold Rush flowers as yellow with orange, supporting the warm flower color. Crocosmias often form sword-leaved clumps with upright flowering stems; light and summer moisture affect growth and flowering. ## Growing Conditions Crocosmias flower best with ample light; the genus grows in full sun or partial shade, while deep shade can reduce bloom. Keep soil reasonably moist during summer, since dry conditions can limit growth. Give the clump room to develop and place it where its flower color can be seen among summer perennials. ## Maintenance Water during extended dry spells, especially while plants establish. Leave foliage in place until it yellows so it can replenish the corms. In climates where Crocosmia is not reliably hardy, protect or lift corms using locally appropriate winter practice.
