Botanical Name: Montbretia
Description: This crocosmia isn’t a heavy bloomer its first year, but its iris-like foliage is attractive.  Emily McKenzie is a long lived plant and by its second year rewards your patience with a July through August display of glowing orange blossoms with red throats.  Flowers carried on arching stems above the foliage at 28 to 36 inches.  Plant in full sun and in well-drained soil and enjoy a late-summer show for many years.
