Kniphofia rooperi

Large, glowing flower heads deliver a spectacular display that brightens the garden well into autumn. Kniphofia rooperi is one of the most impressive red-hot pokers, producing substantial rounded flower spikes packed with tubular blooms in vibrant shades of orange, coral and gold. These striking flowers rise above robust clumps of broad, arching green foliage, creating bold structure and long-lasting seasonal interest. Its strong architectural form makes it ideal for adding height and drama to mixed borders, while the nectar-rich blooms attract bees and other pollinators. Equally effective as a focal point or planted in groups, it provides exceptional colour and presence. The combination of large flower heads and lush foliage ensures this variety remains a standout feature throughout the growing season. Ultimate height: 1.2m (4ft). Ultimate spread: 90cm (35in).
