    It does look like kniphofia, so definitely a possibility.

    I thought maybe Day Lily but kniphofia more likely as I think day lillies have fleshier roots.

    Thank you K67. I potted them in containers a few weeks ago. Should i plant them out now or wait a while until the risk of frost has past

    pitter-patter thank you for you response. I vaguely recall ordering them but had forgotten until i had a light bulb moment, and wondered if kniphofia was a possibility. i will let you know

    I’ve spit some of my kniphofia last year and that’s how the roots looked like.
