Landscape Uses for Red Hot Poker Plants. Red hot pokers make good edging plants and surely are striking enough and blossom long enough to serve as specimen plants. Their drought-tolerance makes them suitable for use in rock gardens, although, considering their vigor, only for expansive rock gardens. They're also suitable for xeriscape plans. Red-hot pokers make rewarding and often long-lived garden plants. Their distinctively-shaped blooms are among the most spectacular of hardy flowers, and their long season means that by careful plant choice gardeners can enjoy them between spring and late autumn. Red hot pokers prefer moist soil, and are often wrongly assumed to be a desert plant. Photo: Emily Whitfield-Wicks/Apex.
