Refreshing Citrus Tones

Kniphofia Poco Citron, a petite powerhouse, pumps out huge numbers of flowers. Short, dense spikes emerge creamy lime-green then shift to lemon yellow, deeper canary yellow and finally light butter crème. A blooming machine amidst upright grassy foliage. Kniphofia Poco Citron from the popular Poco™ Series is valued for its shorter stature for the front of a border, large flower spikes and massive flower count. Kniphofia provide a strong vertical accent above thick clumps of arching blue-green foliage. A gorgeous sight in the late summer perennial border.
