I saw a lot of these at Alnwick gardens and they are such lovely plants. growin Vancouver, BC (Zone 8b) April 3, 2008 1:35 AM Post #4749504 They are pretty and they seem to be tough in the garden. I noticed this one has that purplish colour on the blooms which was different from the other ones in the group. I think this one is also H. argutifolius in my garden but not sure.

I really like that purple tinge but was the one you saw labelled as a cultivar? kniphofia Ashington (United Kingdom) (Zone 8a) April 3, 2008 12:32 PM Post #4751118 I can't honestly remember, I have a yearly pass to the gardens so I'll check on my next visit :)
