Red Hot Poker 'Shining Sceptre' sets the summer garden aglow with stately flower spikes that command attention. Golden-orange flowers from mid-summer to early fall. Grassy foliage on upright stalks. Good as a cut flower. Nice as specimen planting of three or more plants. Attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Photo courtesy Blooms of Bressingham North America.
