Kniphofia Plants

Kniphofia plants produce flowerheads that can reach 5’ high and though the leaves are similar to a lily, the blooms it produces do not resemble that delicate flower at all. Hummingbirds absolutely LOVE this plant.

Kniphofia (pronounced nip-HOFF-ee-uh) uvaria is also commonly known as the Red Hot Poker due to the shape and appearance of its blossoms. It is also called Torch Lily, the Flame Flower or Tritoma. There are many varieties of the Torch Lily with blossoms in varying shades of red, orange and yellow. Most gardeners recommend growing this in front of an evergreen background or where the whole plant can be seen in order to take full advantage of the dramatic display. They are extremely drought tolerant so becoming even more popular with gardeners who wish to preserve water.

You’ll want to leave the foliage for winter protection, mulching the base in colder climates, but cut the foliage back to 3” in the spring. Deadheading is believed to increase the number of blossoms.

Creamsicle Kniphofia Plant

Price $5.75

The 'Creamsicle' Kniphofia Plant is one of the Popsicle™ Series produced by Terra Nova Nurseries, Inc. that were bred not only for smaller spaces, but for their extended bloom time. This torch lily, or poker, as some refer to them, is purely reminiscent of the "dreamsicle creamsicles" of old—you know…those yummy, orange, sherbet popsicles with vanilla ice cream inside? This dwarf variety is sure to fit somewhere in your garden and is well-worth having! This is the color of summer! 3" Pot Size. Sold Out.

Flamenco Kniphofia Plant

Price $4.50

The 'Flamenco' Kniphofia Plant is the "new and improved" version of an old favorite. This torch lily blooms in its first year and if you were to turn the flower spikes upside down, the colors closely resemble that of a Tequila Sunrise, starting a creamy yellow at the bottom and progressing up the spire to shades of orange and then red. Flamenco was an All-American Winner in 1999. 3" Pot Size.

Mango Popsicle Kniphofia Plant

Price $5.75

The 'Mango Popsicle' Kniphofia Plant is another of the Popsicle™ Series produced by Terra Nova Nurseries, Inc. Bred to fit in smaller spaces and for an extended blooming period, this Torchlily is the exact shade of Mmmmm-Mango! Considered a dwarf variety, the short grassy foliage will not overpower your other flowers’ foliage, though the Mango-colored poker blossoms may rise far above on their sturdy 30-inch stems. These are the perfect tall accent for your cut arrangements! 3" Pot Size.

Papaya Popsicle Kniphofia Plant

Price $5.75

No one person can have enough of the Popsicle™ Series from Terra Nova and the 'Papaya Popsicle' Kniphofia Plant just goes to prove it. First introduced in 2010, this dwarf Torchlily was bred to fit in smaller spaces and to provide gorgeous color throughout an extended blooming season. Papaya Popsicle is a poker with a twist! This prolific bloomer bears flower spikes the exact same color as perfectly ripe papayas. Can’t you just taste them? 3" Pot Size. Sold Out.

Pineapple Popsicle Kniphofia Plant

Price $5.75

The breeders from Terra Nova Nurseries have expanded their Popsicle™ Series with the 'Pineapple Popsicle' Kniphofia Plant. Having the same dwarf habits and extended bloom-time, Pineapple is just a bit different, lacking that wild-red coloration at the top of the flower spire, opting instead for a pleasing rosy blush. The prolific blooms will blend well with just about any color you can find in the garden, which means it will also complement your cut flower arrangements. Sweet! 3" Pot Size.
