I thought you’d also like to see Nancy’s Crocosmia.  The leaves look a lot like iris, but the flowers are more like freesia, in that they bloom from the top to the tip on long spikes.  Each spike is about 2 feet tall, and the flowers open up a few at a time.  

 

And they are this gorgeous RED!!!  Really eye-catching.  

 

The deer love them too, so Jim sprays that stinky deer repellent every few days.  So I can’t really tell if they smell good naturally, but I do know that they smell of putrescent egg solids now.

 

Good thing they are pretty.

 

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
