Award winning Kniphofia Royal Standard (Red hot Poker) is a robust perennial with bronze stems bearing dense spikes of bright yellow, tubular flowers opening from scarlet buds from early to mid-summer. Changing colour as the flower matures, this dramatic perennial displays the deepest shades in bud and fades as the flower opens, resulting in a bicolour look, adding interesting splashes of colour to any sunny garden. The stout flowering scapes rise proudly above a tufted clump of narrow, dark foliage.
Grow in full sun, in moist but well drained soil. Attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to your garden, deer, drought and rabbit resistant. Grows to heights of 4 feet with a spread of 3 feet. Ideal for beds and borders, stand alone feature plant in your garden, gravel and rock gardens, informal and cottage styles
