Red Hot Poker (Torch Lily) Fall Care: Stalk Removal Only

Minimal Pruning for Kniphofia

A gardener asks when to cut back and thin red hot pokers that grew vigorously.

No Foliage Pruning

Remove spent flower stalks – Late fall cleanup only
Leave evergreen foliage – Protects crown over winter
Division in spring – If thinning needed, wait until spring

Foliage provides winter protection; spring division rejuvenates clumps.
