  If you are looking for plants to provide you with both exotic colour and architectural effect then Kniphofia caulescens – (Red Hot Poker) has to be up there for strong consideration. Unlike the majority of the rather dull (my opinion only) pastel shades of weak, overly-leafy growth that seems to the the trend for Kniphofia cultivars at the moment, Kniphofia caulescens is an absolute man of a plant with bold, muscular blooms on stocky stems which shine magnificently against the backdrop of gorgeous powder, glaucous-blue foliage.  However the news is better than that is is evergreen, extremely hardy and capable of surviving plenty of neglect.
