Foxtail lily
in Plants
Hi
None of my foxtail lilies (Eremurus) flowered last year, but hoping for better success in their second year - they seem to be looking promising at the moment...is there anything I can do to increase chances of flowering at this stage? Last year they just seemed to die back into the ground just when I was hoping they would flower!

Look pretty healthy to me Worcester. I find they rarely flower first year after planting.
Eremurus are supposed to die back after flowering midsummer
they indeed look healthy and if it's a new clump they can take 1-3 yrs to flower
Resist moving or division unless you really have to and only when they are sleeping
Patience i'm afraid with this one.....
