Thanks kniphofia! This is a new plant to me, and I’m curious to see how it does in my garden.

I believe this is a sport of a plant I have Hermine Grashof, which is a darker, stronger orange. I love these doubles and understand that they have to be propagated from cuttings rather than seed. My HG plant is doing well in a large pot among other plants. I'll definitely try to keep it going.

The nursery had the HG as well the Margaret Long, and I was seriously tempted to buy both because they are so cute! I restrained myself though…for now, at least (no promises about next year). I hope this one will overwinter okay in my garden. It looks like it’s a bit iffy in my zone, but possible. Glad to hear your HG is doing well for you.
