Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Very rare species in cultivation and we are thrilled to offer it from wild collected seed from South Africa. A smaller Poker of moist grasslands, this has salmon buds maturing to white giving a very pleasing two-toned effect on stubby flower heads. There is always room for a new Kniphofia.
