How do we use your location?
Knowing your location helps us recommend plants that will thrive in your climate, based on your Growing Zone.
Eremurus (Foxtail Lily or Desert Candle) blooms in early summer with tall spikes of stunning bright yellow flowers. Plant them in well-drained soil where they get full sun. Perennial in USDA zones 5-8 (mulch well in zones 5-6, and remove in early spring). Eremerus are not well-suited for containers as they prefer not to be moved once established. Foxtail Lilies make stunning cut flowers.
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.

"I lost a few the first time around. I planted more about 5 years ago and now they put on a stunning display. This fall while scratching around to find space for another plant, I discovered that my originals have now produced dozens of ""pups"" which were pushing up to the soil level. They were easily teased out and apart and shared with friends. I think the first time I overestimated just how much drought they could take. This time they are planted in a soil with a decent amount of clay and they have thrived, BUT it is on a slope and in Colorado where we get tons of sun and little rain and light snow, so they are never soggy. (total 15"" of annual precip) Oh and if you have deer, these are great; no browsing at all!"
"Timing was not good for me and I planted in a container until I had the spot ready. Unfortunately I believe the pot did not drain as well as it should have. It never rooted out. I believe it rotted out instead. Maybe I will try one again next year."
