Eremurus 
(FOXTAIL LILLIES) 
Planted in a prominent spot in your garden, six or eight of 
these tall and sturdy stalks, crowned by flower spikes of two or 
three feet long, composed of closely set ball-shaped flowers of 
a pure white, a delicate pink or a soft yellow, are a sight which 
will “take your breath away.’ The peculiarly shaped roots, 
consisting of a large solid crown, with long, brown, fleshy 
roots branching out, should be planted not over 5 inches deep, 
resting on a layer of sand to secure drainage. It is advisable 
to use ashes or coal around the crown; a light mulching will 
be sufficient wintercover. Sometimes they do not flower the 
first season, but once established they need no further care 
and will increase, provided they are not disturbed.
