Grow Foxtail Lilies in a sheltered position in full sun with well drained soil. If planting Eremurus plants on heavy or clay soils, dig in some coarse grit to improve drainage prior to planting.

Try to prevent the base of the plant from becoming shaded as this will reduce the number of Foxtail Lily flower spikes that are produced. In autumn, remove old foliage and apply a mulch of well rotted manure to the base of Eremurus plants, avoiding the crown.
