EREMURUS 
This noble and rare bulbous plant from Turke- 
stan is one of the choicest subjects for the 
permanent hardy border. It thrives best in a 
well-drained, sheltered, sunny position, and 
prefers a deep sandy loam to which has been 
added a liberal quantity of well-rotted cow- 
manure. A covering of 4 to 5 inches of leaves or 
litter will be beneficial and will save the young 
shoots, which start early, and are liable to be 
damaged by late frosts. It produces a tall, 
majestic flower-stalk which rises from a crowded 
tuft of narrow leaves and is crowned by a flower- 
spike 2 to 3 feet long, composed of devely set, bell- 
shaped flowers which are quite star-like in effect. 
The colors are tones of rose, yellow, and white.
