Kniphofia Ichopensis - Indigenous South African Bulb - 5 Seeds

Kniphofia also called Tritoma, Red hot poker, Torch lily or Poker plant, is a genus of plants in the family Xanthorrhoeaceae, subfamily Asphodeloideae, that includes 70 or more species native to Africa.

The flowers produce copious nectar while blooming and may attract sap-suckers such as hummingbirds and New World orioles.
