Thanks David. I will say from here on that it possibly could be a Sunningdale yellow and leave it at that. Roland also suggested it may be that one. The leaves are quite stiff, unlike most of the Kniphofias I had come across before. The "Traffic Lights" one more so than the yellow one. And yes, I do like both. They are compact and problem free so far. I tried various Kniphofias, but eventually decided they were not worth the bother, multiplied like mad and the clumps got too big for my relatively small garden. I do also have the brown flowered one but it has not flowered yet. Ina Crossley In chilly Auckland. One day we are sweltering, next day it is back to winter gear.
