Crocosmia
Montbretia
Coveted by florists, these brightly colored flowers unfold along the length of tall arching spikes, which emerge from handsome clumps of sword-like foliage. If given well-drained soil and divided every 2 to 3 years, this fountain-shaped plant will continue to pour spectacular color into your garden for a long, long time.
Above a sea of bronze-toned foliage, dark purple calyxes highlight ‘Emily Mckenzie’s wide-open, yellowish orange flowers, and dramatic maroon markings decorate their pale orange centers. To enhance the stunning carousel of color, pair this robust beauty with Aster ‘Bill’s Big Blue’.
Blooms August–September.
Size: 2-1/2' high x 2' 0" wide.
Hardy to zone 6.
