Thanks Janette, it may have started as one plant but I think it's as old as me! It would easily divide, but why bother?.....it's happy there and I'm happy to leave it there.

Hi Oldshape,
These red-hot pokers are stunning. I would love to have them in my garden
Do they need full sunlight or can they be grown in shady areas?

Hi Skillen, these are in full Sun. This year, I got > 70 blooms (Picture to follow). Over the winter I gave her a damn good tidy up, pulled out hundreds of dead or browning leaves. I knew I wouldn't kill it, but I wasn't sure if she'd flower. Oh, and in general these are not fed with anything.
