About...

Red Hot Poker (Kniphofia Uvaria) - Red Hot Poker flower seeds must be grown in full sun. Adequate spacing is necessary for these plants since they may spread up to three feet over time. Good drainage is essential to prevent crown rot, otherwise these plants are tolerant of most soil types. Although they will survive periods of drought, they will do better if they are given water during hot weather.
