Kniphofia Ice Queen

Description

Kniphofia ‘Ice Queen’ is a graceful and eye-catching variety of the Torch Lily, prized for its unique color transition in its flower spikes. The tall, elegant flower spikes begin as pale yellow to creamy white at the base and gradually turn a warm orange-red at the tips, creating a stunning visual contrast. The tubular flowers bloom from late summer to fall, providing seasonal interest and attracting hummingbirds and bees to the garden.

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, Kniphofia ‘Ice Queen’ is perfect for adding vertical height, texture, and striking color to garden beds, mixed borders, or container plantings. It is drought-tolerant once established and relatively low-maintenance. Hardy in USDA zones 5-9, ‘Ice Queen’ is an excellent choice for sunny gardens, providing long-lasting beauty and architectural appeal. Whether used as a focal point or in mass plantings for a dramatic effect, Kniphofia ‘Ice Queen’ brings elegance and vibrant color to the landscape.
