Eremurus Foxtail Lilies . 
This noble and rare bulbous plant from Turkestan 
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 Mas 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 stall which rises from a crowded tuft of 
narrow leaves and is crowned by a flower spike 2 to 
3 feet long, composed of closely set, bell-shaped 
flowers which are quite star-like in effect. The colors 
are tones of rose, yellow, and white. Excellent for 
cut-flowers indoors, lasting fully three weeks in 
water. We suggest that they be planted in groups 
of not Jess than three, better effects are created if 
planted in masses of six or twelve.
