Eremurus ' Foxtail Lily '

Beautiful

It's beautiful, as is the rest of your garden.

Very elegant, Amy.

Lovely Amy are these a white variety ?

love this amy,, are they easy to grow

Thanks everyone .. yes this is white Ray / Jane .. .. I have had it for a long time and couldn't remember it's full name ..
I think this is in exactly the right spot San because it thrives here , I daren't plant anything else near it for fear of upsetting it , I'm hoping it will get bigger and have more ' Tails ' each year .. . the root part is almost like a giant spider which you spread out on the ground with hardly any cover of soil over it ...it likes sun / shade and plenty of water in dry weather , which it hasn't had lately ...

How fantastic, it looks like the queen of all it surveys, a perfect setting for it!

Thanks Carole , it does look proud , it has to be one of my favourites :o)

Amy that is lovely, ours have not flowered at all, OH will be sooooooo envious !!

I don't think mine flowered the first year Dd ... how long have you had it ?

fantastic garden

Thanks Y :o)

More familiar with the yellow ones Amy but love white flowers so on the wish list .

Isn't that strange , I've only ever seen white ones Ray / Jane ...I shall be keeping my eyes open for the yellow variety from now on :o)

E.stenophyllis is latin name - had to look it up of course - for yellow one so perhaps a seperate variety to the others ?

I've been looking it up as well ' E. bungei ' it looks lovely .. ... apparently there's also one called E.robustus which grow 8ft tall with pale peach flowers sounds amazing . . I will look that up on Google ..!

Lol Amy steady not spoken Latin since the Romans marched through here then the Vikings arrived guess they planted oil seed rape as they pillaged then finally the French is it any wonder cant pronounce anything ! lol

LOL... I can't speak anything .. I just copy what's in front of me , it might as well be double dutch .. ;o))

Thanks Amy forgotten about them .. lol

Amy had some ten years, and the others are only a year old.....

What a shame , I wonder if the soil makes a difference Angela ours is acid !

You could be right, ours is not.......

Ah -Hum ! It could be the answer , Isn't that annoying :o(

Stunning Amy. Stunning setting and stunning plant. :o)))

I'm glad you like it Linda ,Thanks . :-)

These are lovely Amy .......

Oh what a beauty Amy! It really is stunningly fabulous....love the pale colour and against the pebbles.....WOW!

Thanks Janette and Janey , you are all being so kind , I must admit they are a real favourite with me ... :o)

Beautiful! What is the name of that tall flower in the center, please?

Do you mean the tall white one with 5 stems Katarina ? it is the Eremurus ' Foxtail Lily ' :o)

wow i love it

I really envy you these Eremerus, I planted 3 last year and lost 2 and the other one got damaged before it could develop.I am inspired to try again seeing your lovely plants.

Thanks Eileen , I hope you succeed Bellflower ,it's worth the wait when it's in flower in front of you , it gets bigger and better each year .. :o)

Pretty garden Amy :o)

Thanks TT :o))

Its a lovely garden and I might be pinching some idea,s Amy

Thanks Maggy thats kind of you to say so ... :o)

Thanks Paul.. I bought a new one a couple of weeks ago , it's a peach colour and called ' Romance ' I've planted it near this one as it obviously suits it in this spot , I shall look forward to seeing how it does next year . :-)
