Well, thank you All for your posts. I see lots of you like this plant even it does go crazy. I love the orange flowers. I keep it under control by division and give lots to friends too.
I have lots of different varieties. Lovely late summer flowers but don't let them out of your (or your friends') garden because they are a problem if they go feral
Gardening on the edge of Exmoor, in Devon
“It's still magic even if you know how it's done.”
I burn the corms I dig out, I class it as a pernicious weed it is so invasive.
My Lucifer is also just coming out, gorgeous as I planted it in a bed along the top of a 3ft stone wall. In the evening the sun shines through the flowers which make then look as if they are on fire. A very happy mistake.

When the sun shines out your bum!
