Crocosmia masonorum 'lucifer'

Just wondering if any kibkomers have these growing plentifully in their gardens, and might like to share. I had some which all died in the heat while I was away, and I'd love to replace them and look after them a bit better!
Just thought I'd post on the general forum for a bit more exposure, but stand willing to be corrected and moved elsewhere
Thanks

I have some and they flower well but in the heat they do 'rest' but mine come back every year( so far anyway) they always flower in late spring early summer. check that yours are not just 'resting'
