Common Name: Poco™ Citron Red Hot Poker

Description:
Kniphofia Poco™ Citron is a compact, clump-forming perennial known for its striking spikes of pale yellow, tubular flowers that rise above its narrow, grass-like foliage. Flowering from late spring through autumn, this eye-catching plant attracts bees, butterflies, and birds, making it a fantastic addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. Its drought-tolerant nature and long-lasting blooms make it ideal for garden borders, rockeries, and pots. Thriving in Melbourne’s climate, Poco™ Citron prefers full sun and well-drained soil.
