Kniphofia ‘Fiery Fred’

Kniphofia blooms have a wonderful shape that makes such a good contrast with other plants in a border. K. ‘Fiery Fred’ has a particularly long season, its milky-orange flower spikes are produced in succession from late May and continue into August. It is important to remove old poker stems to keep the show clean and encourage re-blooming. Even once the floral show has finished, the grass-like foliage remains clean into the winter and has a presence in the flower garden. Tidy in spring when the new foliage is breaking through, the old leaves are much easier to remove then. AGM.
