Kniphofia 'Toffee Nosed' is a wonderful 1980s introduction, selected by John Metcalf of Four Seasons Nursery in the UK. Compared to the larger pokers, the narrow green leaves on this winner of the RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) Award of Garden Merit make a smallish, 2' wide clump. Starting in June (NC), the 3' tall, narrow flower stalks end in ivory flowers with an orange top...a very unusual color combination in pokers, elegantly stunning and a hummingbird magnet. Be sure to stick one of these pokers up your...I mean, IN your garden!
