Today I cleaned up the 3 clumps of Kniphofia that still had leaves attached, and thankfully the leaves pulled away easily and the crowns underneath look healthy. However, the clump that I trimmed back in the fall looks like it may be dead. It may surprise me, but the crown looks dark and its kinda slimy in there.
