EREMURUS (Ehr-e-mew-rus) 
Desert Candle or Foxtail Lily 
These striking bulbous plants are among the finest of all 
hardy garden lilies. They are extremely effective in the 
perennial border where they produce gigantic truly spec- 
tacular spires in lovely pastel shades often reaching 8’ or 
more. As a cutflower, they will astonish you by remaining 
in good conidtion for weeks. Eremuri will flourish and 
increase for years without resetting in any.sunny well 
drained position. Since the flower stalks are tall, Eremuri 
are most effective when planted in groups of 3 or more. 
Some winter mulch is suggested for the coldest regions 
to protect the early growth against spring freezes. As it 
takes from 5 to 7 years to produce a blooming size root, 
stock of good Eremuri varieties is very scarce. Flowering 
sized roots are shipped only in the fall from Sept. on 
which is their proper planting season. Place roots 5” 
deep with fibers well spread. 
We offer here a selected group of the world’s finest 
Eremuri Hybrids developed by Mr. A. A. Samuelson of 
Pullman, Wash., the outstanding authority on Eremuri in 
this country.
