A very rare and interesting form of red hot poker. This one has delicate tall spires of orange tubular flowers (almost like Aloes) that hang graciously and are separated from each other, unlike most hybrids. It runs gently rather than forming thick clumps - this is a real treasure. Needs a sunny well drained site. Height 90cm (3')
