Montbretia, or Crocosmia, was a popular traveler from South Africa to the US in the 1930's. Its brilliant flaming colors are a huge attraction for hummingbirds and butterflies. The unopened buds look like candy. I suppose, in a way, they are. I'll keep trying to capture the exact color of the rich reds of the variety I have in my gardens.
