Red Hot Poker Tour
'Tawny King' is an extremely popular white because the mid- to late summer flowers open from tawny brown buds from the base up, and the flowers stand out against the dark bronze stems - a good choice among the flashier hothouse orange and red pokers. There are plenty more pokers to give an extra show through September and October, especially the orange-red 'Prince Igor' and the huge, 240cm-high Kniphofia uvaria 'Nobilis'. All like rich, moist ground.
