Kniphofia 'Rocket Jr' is a compact variety of the popular red hot poker plant, known for its vivid, torch-like flower spikes. Blooming in fiery shades of red, orange, and yellow, it adds bold color and vertical interest to garden beds from early to mid-summer. Its tidy, grassy foliage and shorter stature—usually reaching 18–24 inches tall—make it ideal for smaller spaces or front-of-border plantings. Loved by hummingbirds and butterflies, it also brings dynamic movement and wildlife to the garden.

To grow Kniphofia 'Rocket Jr' successfully, choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. It thrives in hot, dry conditions and is drought-tolerant once established. Avoid overly wet or clay-heavy soils to prevent crown rot. Water during dry spells, but let the soil dry between waterings. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage additional flowering. In colder climates, mulch in late fall to protect the crown. Hardy in USDA zones 5–9, it's a low-maintenance, high-impact perennial.
