Stunning colour 😀

Love that Richard😍

Gorgeous!

That's so very pretty 😍

Great photo 😊

Ooo foxy cleopatra @richard.spicer.7906

My only foxtail lily to flower this year - #Eremurus x isabellinus 'Cleopatra' #orange 😊 #foxtaillily

Wow! It looks amazing Richard!

Foxtail lily looks amazing, will add that to my wish list. My alliums were finished a couple of weeks back and I've had to cut all the heads off as the storms and torrential rain have flattened them all 😢

At least your one is a beauty.

@richard.spicer.7906 loving the combination of FtL's with alliums!!👍

Doesn't look like mine are going to Rich, just got lots of leaves, but yours looks amazing , well jell 👏👏

I've been really wanting to grow this. Is it tricky?

@lisa868 oh that's a shame Lisa - this May and June weather has really taken its toll on our gardens this year 😞

It can be quite tricky @valjones-hughes - I'll tag you in a page with some advice and tips.

@juliesgarden just the one though Julie. Fingers crossed they all come back next year 👍🏼

Thanks Emma 😁 very pleased with it! @emmalaws

One of my favourites. Just a pity they are not in flower for longer.

A lush new #bud of Eremurus 'Cleopatra' coming through 😊 #eremurus #foxtaillily

Great photo Richard

Oh wow took my breath away 😆

I'm so jealous. Had one last year and hasn't popped up this spring. 😞

Beautiful. I love lillies however I have a plant loving muncher of a cat, so unfortunately I cannot have them in my garden :(

Wow amazingly beautiful :)

@Richard. Spicer.7906 mine is only just started to grow,have you had your inside

Same here x5 @sarahf ....I wish plant growers & florists etc would put warnings on flowers/plants more often. Some are vg but others...not so 😡 #cats #pets #poisonous

Hi @KatieCat - did you get foxtail's too? These are the ones with the roots that look like big spiders. Mines been in the ground outside all winter, they are fairly hardy but they don't like to be waterlogged.

Hi @richard.spicer.7906 I bought them when I was at Harrogate and have them in a tub at the moment

Hi @wizzykat @sarahf - is this still the same for non true Lillies, like this one (Eremurus)? - I thought that was only linked to true oriental or asiatic Lillies of the Lillium genus. 🤔

Hi @richard.spicer.7906 ...I'll check but pretty sure applies to all of lily family as well as other plants like poinsettias....In fact the list for child minders to avoid in their gardens is extensive so prob same for our pets #cats #dogs #pets #poisonous 😢

The foxtail lilies are breaking through 😀 #newgrowth #foxtaillily #eremurus

👏👏👏

What colour will the flowers be?

These are going to be peachy orange coloured 👍🏼 @kathy

Looking good 👀

No sign of mine yet Rich 😧 @richard.spicer.7906

Ah these are the one with octopus like roots ? @richard.spicer.7906 @juliesgarden 🤓

They are Deb 🐙 , although I can only see the one coming through at the moment. Not sure about the other two, hopefully in the next couple of weeks Julie 🤔 @debs69 @juliesgarden

This is my first year growing these @latebloomer so I am mega excited 😁 , although these a small ones, I have another where the flower stem can shoot up to 2.5 metres tall!

One for my plant diary. More octopus looking plants planted today in between the rain 🌧. This one is 'Cleopatra' - bright peachy orange flowers in June to July #eremurus #foxtaillily

Sounds gorgeous

Hopefully @kathy , keeping my fingers crossed!

Planted mine this week as well Richard 😃🙌🏻

Yay! They're gonna look super Julie 😁 🙌🏼 @juliesgarden

Hope so 🤗🤗
