Although they will survive periods of drought, they will do better if they are given water during hot weather. In the colder zones Red Hot Poker is not very winter tolerant, so the plants will need to be mulched to protect the roots from the cold. Some people also recommend tying the foliage together to help keep the rain from collecting in the crown. Another option is to cut the foliage off in the late fall.Torch Lily seeds need a cold-treatment before sowing. Dampen a paper towel, wring out excess moisture and carefully place the flower seeds on the damp towel. Roll up the towel, place it in a ziploc bag and place in refrigerator for 4 weeks.After the cold-treatment, sow the Kniphofia Uvaria seeds indoors 6 – 8 weeks before planting out, using sterile potting mix and peat pots. Barely cover the Red Hot Poker seeds with peat moss and keep flower seed moist. Transplant Red Hot Poker seedlings outdoors when they are about 2 inches tall. In order not to hurt the growing tap root, plant the entire peat pot into the garden. Or, sow Red Hot Poker flower seeds directly outside.
