Overview

Tall, slender flower spikes emerge from clumps of narrow, mid-green leaves, creating a striking vertical accent in early summer. The densely packed, star-shaped white flowers of Eremurus 'Line Dance' open from soft peach buds, forming elegant tapering plumes.

Growing up to 1.2m (5ft) high, this foxtail lily adds bold structure to sunny, well-drained borders. Pair with late-flowering perennials and ornamental grasses to disguise the foliage as it dies back after blooming.

Highly attractive to pollinators, it also makes an impressive cut flower, lasting for weeks in cut arrangements.

Care guide

Plant Eremurus tubers from September to November, spreading the starfish-like roots over a mound of soil in a shallow hole, with the crown about 5cm (2in) below the surface. Space them 30-60cm (12-24in) apart in fertile, well-drained soil and a sunny, sheltered spot.

After flowering, deadhead the spent blooms and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser weekly for about a month. Allow the foliage to die back naturally, then leave the tubers in the ground, ensuring the soil remains well-drained to prevent rot.

Foxtail lilies resent disturbance so hand weed around them. They don’t thrive in the shadow of other plants.

If lifting is necessary due to soil prone to waterlogging, store the tubers in a cool, dry place over winter.
