Kniphofia aka Redhot Poker "Springtime"

they used to do more before the winter of 2011/12 , and have mainly kept the ones that survived and not bothered with re introducing the ones they lost, as a business I could understand .
Some of the nursery's must of taken a big hit I know Welsh Hollies did.

are still restocking to get the plants up to a salable size from then with some of the rarer varieties.

*Update*

the nursery are NOT selling this year been told today and the other lead I had he lost it in 2012 in the bad winter.

So, I have written to the National Plant holder on the Isle of White so I will let you know how I get on
