Care Guide

Cultivation

Grow in fertile, free draining soil, in a sunny position with plenty of root space. May need staking in windy sites. Mulch with garden compost in autumn, but avoid covering the crown. Needs winter cold to flower, but protect young spring growth from frost. See eremurus cultivation for more detailed advice

Pruning

Unless seeds are required, spent flower spikes can be cut down at the base

Propagation

Propagate by seed, or by division of mature plants, taking care to minimise root disturbance. Plants grown from seed may vary, and may take 3-5 years to flower. As this plant is protected by Plant Breeders' Rights, any propagation should be for personal rather than commercial use

Pests

May be susceptible to slugs and snails
