Mimulus cupreus 'Red Emperor'

Mimulus cupreus 'Red Emperor', commonly known as red emperor monkey flower, is a clump-forming perennial with upright, lance-shaped green leaves forming dense foliage. In summer it produces striking, large tubular flowers in deep red shades, creating a bold and colourful display along pond margins and in damp soils.

This cultivar is valuable for pollinators such as bees and adds seasonal interest to wetland planting schemes. Its upright, clump-forming habit and preference for consistently moist or shallowly submerged soil make it ideal for pond edges, bog gardens, and naturalistic water features.
