Kniphofia caulescens Caulescent red-hot poker
KNIP-CAU-RED
Hot Plant Company
A very popular clump-forming perennial from South Africa that is as much at home in an exotic garden as it is in mixed herbaceous border. The grey green of foliage is evergreen and the brilliant red/orange and yellow poker like flowers are produced on tall stems up to 150cm tall in mid summer. Full sun in any well drained soil. Relatively drought resistant once established.
Sent as a young plant in a 9cm Pot.
