Red Hot Poker

"Red Hot Poker is native to Madagascar and Africa. It is also called Kniphofia, Torch lily, and Poker plant.

The plant grows to a height of 36-60 inches and 2 feet in spread (60 cm).

Red Hot Poker is known for their bright, rocket-shaped flowers. The plants produce spikes of hanging, red-to-orange flowers which have flowering spikes of pale yellow, ivory, apricot, orange and red. All have long, sword-like basal leave. It flowers from the bottom upward, and the bright orange flowers fade to yellowish green as they senesce, resulting in a two toned spike with orange flowers at the top and yellowish ones below"

Taken me 2 years to get this to grow, must be the early sun :-)
