How to care for Kniphofia Poco Yellow ('Tnknipy') (PBR) (Poco Series):
In autumn remove and compost the faded flower spikes and apply a deep dry mulch such as pine needles around the crown of the plant. Cut back to the ground in spring to keep the foliage fresh-looking. Divide and replant overcrowded colonies in spring.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
