Minimum order quantity for this plant in 14cm pots is 4 units Kniphofia Winter Cheer, also known as Red Hot Poker, is a striking perennial that produces tall spikes of fiery orange-red flowers during winter, adding vibrant color to the garden when little else is in bloom. Its arching, grass-like foliage remains evergreen, providing year-round structure. This hardy plant attracts birds and pollinators, making it a great choice for wildlife-friendly gardens. In Australia, Winter Cheer thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, tolerating a range of conditions from coastal to inland gardens. It is drought-tolerant once established but benefits from occasional deep watering during extended dry periods. Avoid waterlogged soil, as it can lead to root rot. To encourage prolific flowering, remove spent flower spikes and apply a slow-release fertilizer in spring. Mulching around the base helps retain moisture and suppress weeds. Minimal maintenance is needed, but dividing clumps every few years promotes healthy growth. Suitable for garden beds and borders, Winter Cheer brings warmth and structure to winter landscapes.
