Kniphofia 'Lady Luck'

With flower heads that reach 5-5½' tall, Kniphofia ‘Lady Luck’ is a towering Torch Lily, its upright blossom spikes crowded with apple green buds that open to white tubular flowers that attract pollinators. This South African native is unfazed by poor soil, mild drought, and the salt air in seaside gardens, and it is a striking sight in the late-season sunny border. The plant’s grassy foliage forms a large clump that adds texture to the garden over a long season.

The 70 or so members of the genus Kniphofia are best known for their towering spikes of tubular, intensely colored flowers. Over the years, breeders have selected varieties with softer colors. Native to Africa, Kniphofias require full sun and well-drained soil. In our experience, they are otherwise carefree.

HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available.
