Crocosmia hybrida 'Emily McKenzie'
- Product number: 705723.1
- Origin: South Africa
- Latin: Crocosmia x crocosmiiflora
The name "Montbretia" is so well-established that it has become a Dutch name... The sword-shaped leaves form the base for dark purple stems from which a profusion of warm-coloured flowers emerge: beautiful bright orange with a deep orange ring around the heart. The plant is (due to mild winters) increasingly winter-hardy! Height 30-40 cm.
