Kniphofia Traffic Lights - Red Hot Poker

The <strong><a href="https://www.promessedefleurs.ie/perennials/perennials-by-variety/kniphofia-red-hot-pokers.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kniphofia or red hot poker</a></strong>, sometimes referred to as "false aloe", is a remarkable perennial. It offers a <strong>long, vibrant flowering</strong> display, ranging from orange to yellow, with creamy white, beautifully highlighted by its elegant foliage. <strong>Once out of fashion, it is making a strong comeback</strong>, and rightly so, as it is an <strong>excellent perennial plant</strong> for borders, with a tall and graphic habit, essential for brightening up borders, rockeries, and containers throughout the summer. Ranging in height <strong>from 50 cm to 1.20 m</strong>, kniphofia helps to structure the somewhat flat beds of <strong>vicarage gardens</strong>, naturalistic gardens, as well as <strong>contemporary gardens</strong>, where they ignite <strong>colourful torches</strong> throughout the beautiful season. From <em>kniphofia uvaria 'grandiflora'</em> with its flowers transitioning through shades of orange, to the classic variety Kniphofia “Royal Standard” with <strong>bicoloured yellow and red flowers</strong>, all tritomas are surprising, robust plants that have already charmed our grandmothers, bringing <strong>an exotic touch</strong> that is very refreshing to the garden. With its exotic appearance, the Kniphofia, known as “devil's poker” or “Satan's poker”, reveals a <strong>great hardiness</strong>, able to withstand our rather cold winters (-10 to -15°C). Kniphofia in yellow, red, orange, and sometimes green and white, attract pollinating insects all summer long around their colourful spikes, <strong>which are also stunning in bouquets!</strong> Easy to grow, Kniphofia requires only a <strong>well-drained soil</strong> that remains cool during the summer and a warm, sunny location, essential for abundant flowering.
