How Do You Divide Crocosmia?

With their sword-like leaves and exotic-looking blooms that grow atop tall, graceful stems, crocosmia is the queen of the summertime flower bed. A sturdy, drought-tolerant plant that demands almost no attention once it's planted, crocosmia will bloom from mid-summer to early autumn. To keep crocosmia blooming at its vigorous best, divide the bulb-like corms every two or three years.

Prepare a spot for the new crocosmia plant before you begin. Crocosmia will do best in full sun or partial shade and well-drained soil. Remove weeds from the area, and use a shovel or garden fork to cultivate the soil to a depth of at least 8 inches.

Work an inch of compost into the bottom of the soil. Dig straight down with a garden fork, and jiggle the fork as you gently lift the crocosmia clump out of the ground. If the clump is large, work your way in a circle around the plant until it can be easily lifted from the soil.

Don't dig too close to the plant because you may accidentally cut into the corms ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
