Could you give me some characteristics of a Torch Lily plant?

I planted seeds years ago and 2-3 bloomed once. I moved what I thought were %26#039;Torch Lilies%26#039; or %26#039;Red Hot Poker%26#039; from this spot in the shade and have been nurturing them ,but now I%26#039;m seeing the grass like plant all over my yard with the grass. How can I tell what i have is the Torch Lilly? I%26#039;ve checked the net, but none give good pics of the leaves.

Easy to grow and live with, a dozen grass look-alikes





produce clumps of narrow, grass-like foliage. Most, in fact, are sturdy iris and lily relatives, making them as easy to grow as they are easy to live with.





Leaves come in all shades of green--also bronze and green-and-white striped. Some kinds are soft textured and drape gracefully; others, with stiffer blades, give crisp lines to mixed plantings. Six of the 12 also provide colorful blossoms that last well in cut-flower arrangements.





Use any of these perennials singly or in groups to add strappy-leafed texture to flower beds, shrub borders, and rock gardens. For punctuation, cluster three to five in a carpet of low-growing ground cover--or line them up to soften edges of walkways. Many also tuck attractively into rocks around pools or ponds.





All can be propagated by division. In fall or spring, lift well-filled clumps, break or cut sections apart, and replant.

Reply:Kniphofia uvaria is also known as Torch Lily or Red Hot Poker due to the shape and color of its inflorescence. The leaves are reminiscent of a lily, and the flowerhead can reach up to 5 feet in height. There are many varieties of torch lily, and they bloom at different times during the growing season. The flowers are red, orange, and yellow.





It originates from South Africa, and was introduced into the U.S. as a garden plant. It is hardy in zones 5-10.
