Kniphofia 'Winter Cheer' (Red-Hot Poker) is a bold and reliable perennial that adds vibrant colour to the winter garden. Its tall, sturdy stems rise above evergreen, grass-like foliage and are topped with striking reddish-orange tubular flower spikes that appear from winter through early spring.
This clump-forming plant thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, is low maintenance, and attracts birds such as hummingbirds. With excellent drought tolerance once established, it is an ideal choice for garden beds, borders, or as a cut flower to bring a burst of colour indoors during the cooler months.
