Himalayan foxtail lily (Eremurus himalaicus) has dramatic 5-8 foot spires of white flowers that tower above bright green strap-like leaves in early summer. Give foxtail lilies their space and do not allow other perennials to overgrow their foliage. Surround them with nice low groundcovers. The foliage goes dormant after bloom when soil moisture should be reduced. Extra large bulbs.
