Kniphofia uvaria, commonly known as the red hot poker or torch lily, is a striking herbaceous perennial native to South Africa. It features tall, erect spikes of tubular red-to-orange flowers that transition to yellow as they mature, resembling a flaming torch. This drought-tolerant, sun-loving plant thrives in well-drained soils and is prized for its ability to attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. Popular in xeriscaping and ornamental gardens, Kniphofia uvaria adds bold color and architectural interest to landscapes while demonstrating resilience in challenging environments.
