Crocosmia. (spelling)? Nice photo. I never thought of photographing them. they grow like weeds in our garden. They grow from little bulbs which multiply every year. In gardening terminology they are THUGS.

These do photograph a lot better than they look
Good idea putting them against a black background.

Montbretia? Actually I like them as plants and the image is a classy one too.
Best regards, John

Thanks Algi. I thought I was right but John put a doubt in my head. My wife is the gardener I'm just the labourer. The old saying "When I say jump you say how high" translates into "When I say dig you say how deep" and "Build me a new structure for my plants to grow up" I reply "Yes dear, No dear, 3 bags full dear".
Anyway it's still a nice photo by snappychappy. (NAME)?
CHEERS Vic.
