The Red Hot Fire Poker was a freebie. We ordered some seeds from Gurney several years ago, and they threw it in as a bonus, as is their policy. Otherwise, The Red Hot Fire Poker is something we probably never would have planted in our yard. We’d never heard of it. Plus it’s not edible. Nor is it an herb. The last two are our major criterion for selecting to put a plant into our garden.
The Red Hot Fire Poker is amusing however. And aptly named. It’s bloom cycle is pretty brief so we’re always pleased when we don’t miss it. Kinda cute too, don’t you think?
