Rooperi Red Hot Poker

Uniquely shaped, colourful flower heads stand out.
This tall, sun-loving native of South Africa yields brilliant, bicolour flowers that look custom made for border use. While the blooms of most red hot poker varieties resemble torches--they're often also called torch lilies--Rooperi's tubular florets form oval clusters of warm orange that change to yellow towards the bottom. The impressive, nectar-rich blooms attract all manner of pollinators.
