Red hot Pokers - perfect Winter colour!


Despite us being in early Winter here there's still plenty of colour to brighten things up such as these Red Hot Pokers also known as Kniphofia. These are growing in orange clumps along my road and make a welcome addition at the moment.

I have these in my garden too but it is only June here and they will not put on their fiery display until well into August
