Kniphofia plants (often called Red Hot Pokers) are a quick way to add bold colour and height to sunny borders. Their upright, torch-like flowers stand above strappy leaves, giving you a strong, modern look with very little effort. If your garden needs a bit more "wow" from summer into early autumn, Kniphofia is a great choice.

They’re ideal for the middle or back of a border, where you want structure that doesn’t flop and colour that doesn’t fade into the background. Kniphofia also works brilliantly in gravel gardens and contemporary schemes, and it pairs nicely with grasses and other sun-loving perennials. Many varieties flower for weeks, so you get a long display rather than a one-hit wonder. And because the blooms are packed with nectar, they’re a good shout if you want to make the garden more pollinator-friendly too.

Growing them is straightforward: plant in full sun, in well-drained soil, and water well while they settle in. Once established they’re fairly drought-tolerant, making them a good choice for low-maintenance areas. Deadhead faded flower spikes to keep plants looking tidy, then cut back old stems when flowering finishes. In colder spots, a little winter protection can help, but overall these are tough plants that get on with the job.

We’ve curated a range of popular, high-performing Kniphofia varieties chosen for reliable flowering and strong garden presence. Pick your favourites, order in a few clicks, and we’ll deliver them straight to your doorùready to plant and ready to perform.
