Can you give me some info on these plants? I saw one at the garden center a while ago and was fascinated,

Hello kniphofia,

I got this one at a nursery here in Tucson called Arid Lands. Here's a link to a pretty good description.

And a pic of it leafed out in summer.

Wow, I didn't know they leafed out like that! What an amazing looking plant!

Thanks a lot for that link, just the kind of info I was looking for.

Hi Sue :-)

It is a very cool plant. I'm hoping it will produce some offsets this spring. I really want to propagate it. Havent had any luck fertilizing the flowers, I guess they are not self fertile.
