Kniphofia

This flower amazed me when I saw it at the plaza of the train station of the 21st Viennese District Floridsdorf. It reminded me of the succulents in my garden in Andalusia. The cluster of flowers are yellow in color which look like spikes. When the clusters open, the flowers are so pretty.

Description : Source

Herbaceous species and hybrids have narrow, grass-like leaves 10–100 cm (4–39 in) long. All plants produce spikes of upright, brightly coloured flowers well above the foliage, in carious shades of red, orange and yellow, often bicoloured. The flowers produce copious nectar while blooming and are attractive to bees and sunbirds.

After flowering, they produce berries that are rounder in shape similar to that of the wild roses. According to Wikipedia, the flower was named after a german botanist named Johann Hieronymus Kniphof
