Crocosmia – Emily McKenzie

A fiery late-season stunner, Crocosmia ‘Emily McKenzie’ forms upright clumps of sword-shaped, mid-green foliage that support graceful arching sprays of star-like tubular flowers. Each bloom features glowing coppery-orange petals accented with crimson throats and a yellow eye, creating a dramatic bicolor display from mid-summer through early fall. Standing 24–30 in (60–75 cm) tall with a 12–18 in (30–45 cm) spread, it thrives in full sun to part shade and moist, well-drained soils. This easy-care bulb is heat-, drought-, salt-, deer-, and rabbit-resistant, and is beloved by butterflies, hummingbirds, and cut-flower enthusiasts. Its decorative seed pods also add interest in autumn and for dried arrangements.
