Crocosmia 'Emily McKenzie' (Pot Size: 3.5 Litre Pot)
Crocosmia ‘Emily McKenzie’ is a vibrant and eye-catching perennial that brings a bold splash of colour to any garden. With its striking burnt orange blooms featuring a red throat and dark centre, this variety creates a warm and lively display from mid to late Summer. Growing to a height of up to 100 cm, ‘Emily McKenzie’ is perfect for planting in sunny borders, mixed beds, or along pathways, where its graceful arching stems can be fully appreciated.
We love planting ‘Emily McKenzie’ in cottage gardens and prairie-style designs, where it complements other late Summer perennials like Echinacea, Rudbeckia, and ornamental grasses. It is also ideal for creating contrast in contemporary garden schemes, adding a pop of bold colour against more minimalist backdrops. This versatile plant pairs beautifully with purple, blue, and yellow flowers, enhancing the overall impact of garden compositions.
‘Emily McKenzie’ has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit, reflecting its exceptional garden performance, resilience, and ease of growth. This variety is not only beloved for its stunning blooms but also for its ability to attract pollinators, adding both beauty and ecological value to your garden.
