Kniphofia ID please

Took this shot yesterday in the park:

I thought Kniphofias were summer bloomers here, it's good to see them flowering this late into the season.

Looks to me like Rooperi, late flowering variety usually flowers here between the end of August and mid to late September

Not totally convinced on rooperi but it could be. There is so many similar species that overlap each other in flowering time, shape and colour. I'd still doubt an id even if it had a label in it.
