Eremurus Cleapatra
Cleopatra is a cultivar of Eremurus x Isabellinus, a cross between Eremurus Olgae and E. Stenophyllus. Eremurus are native to central and western Asia where their usual habitats are dry grassland and arid places. Consequently they will not take kindly to heavy wet soils in the garden This Foxtail Lily provides a touch of drama to the garden in mid summer with its majestic soaring spires covered in burnt orange flowers with each petal striped with red. The strappy bluish green leaves can be up to 24 inches long.
