Kniphofia - one that flowers in August?

chickychicky Posts: 10,409

i have a couple of kniphofias that are doing well, but flower in June.  Does anyone have recommendations for ones that are in flower now?  I'm looking for something quite fiery, so in the reddy orange spectrum rather than pale yellow or cream. 

Many thanks
