Kniphofia Bees Lemon

• Light: This plant prefers full sun to partial shade. In areas with hot summers, it’s best to provide some afternoon shade to prevent the leaves from scorching.
• Soil: It is adaptable to a variety of soils, but it prefers well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. If your soil is heavy or poorly draining, amend it with compost or sand to improve its structure.
• Water: This plant is drought-tolerant, but it still needs regular watering, especially during periods of drought. Water the plant deeply and allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so be careful not to overwater.
• Fertiliser: It doesn’t require much fertiliser, but a slow-release fertiliser or compost can be applied in the Spring to give the plant a boost.
• Pruning: Deadhead the spent blooms to encourage continued blooming throughout the season. Cut back the entire plant to the ground in late Autumn or early Spring to promote new growth.
• Winter Care: It is hardy and can tolerate frost and cold temperatures. In areas with harsh winters, you can provide extra protection by adding a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to insulate the roots.

By following these care tips, you can keep your Kniphofia Bees Lemon healthy and thriving. With its bright yellow spikes of flowers and easy-care nature, this plant is sure to bring a touch of colour and beauty to your garden.
