USA – Terra Nova Nurseries has introduced a new variety to its popular Kniphofia POCO series: the Kniphofia POCO ‘Butter Brickle’.
This addition brings a fresh wave of excitement to gardeners, with its striking butterscotch-gold flowers and sturdy, upright foliage that promises to enhance any landscape.
The Kniphofia POCO ‘Butter Brickle’ is designed for a variety of uses, making it a valuable addition to any garden.
It works wonderfully as a color spot or vertical accent at the front of flower borders, but it also holds significant landscape value when planted in mass or used in containers.
With its deep, golden hues, this perennial can make an impressive statement, whether in a decorative pot or as a vibrant edge in the garden.
“Kniphofia POCO ‘Butter Brickle’ is not only visually appealing but also highly practical,” said a representative from Terra Nova Nurseries. “It is deer-resistant, heat- and humidity-tolerant, and draws hummingbirds, making it an attractive and durable option for various gardening conditions.”
This kniphofia variety blooms from June through October, thriving in full sun. It exhibits a clumping growth habit and reaches a height of 17 inches, with a width of 21 inches.
Its flowers, growing up to 21 inches tall, are known for their bright butterscotch-gold color, adding a rich layer to any garden or container.
This plant is well-suited for USDA Hardiness Zones 6-9, ensuring it can be grown in a variety of climates.
The growth process is also efficient, with a finish time from a liner to a 4-inch pot ranging from six to eight weeks, and from a liner to a 1-gallon pot in about 10 to 12 weeks.
Terra Nova recommends allowing this plant to dry moderately between waterings, which contributes to its healthy development.
