Oh, how nice to have the bloom for the day. Thank you, Kell, Pirl and Allison.
It would look great with a hot pink one, Kell. Unfortunately, I learned a lesson about kniphofia with this plant. I deadheaded this one before winter, not thinking about the short hollow tube stem I left behind. Well, apparently that tube filled with water and froze the crown of the plant. It was mush and very dead come spring. As I got the plant from Seneca Hill, I can't replace it.

That is so sad! Maybe some place else has a green one!
