About Kniphofia Lemon Popsicle 2 Litre Pot

Kniphofia ‘Lemon Popsicle’ – Compact, Long-Flowering Torch Lily with Zesty Yellow Spike

Kniphofia ‘Lemon Popsicle’ is a vibrant and compact variety of Red Hot Poker that adds cheerful, citrus-hued colour to the summer border. Part of the Popsicle Series, this dwarf perennial produces upright spikes of pale lemon-yellow flowers from early summer well into autumn, delivering an extended season of bloom that brightens garden beds, containers, or gravel gardens with ease.

With its grassy, clump-forming foliage and neat habit, ‘Lemon Popsicle’ is perfect for adding vertical interest without overwhelming nearby plants. It’s loved by pollinators, thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, and is a reliable choice for both modern and cottage-style schemes.
