Kniphofia Strawberries and Cream
Plants of upland areas in tropical and southern Africa where they inhabit the moist places in rough grassland. Adding some excitement, height and colour in the late summer the Knifophia family especially suit those who garden on soils that dry out in summer - they are very drought tolerant plants and love the sun! Strawberries and Cream flower in July and August at about 2-2' 6" tall, the older flowers at the bottom of the spike a creamy colour, those above a pretty coral pink hue. Supplied in 1L pots which will grow on well.
Planting instructions
Good drainage needed, they dislike waterlogging. Best in fairly full sun and in warmer soils. Plant them in good conditions, water as necessary to establish them in the late spring and early summer, remember some slug pellets around the area 'in case' and wait for the summer flourish. If you are planting more than one plant them about 14" apart, and if different varieties a little further away from one another.
