Punctuate your garden with colour this year with the delightful Eremurus 'Tropical Dream' a fully hardy yet exotic-looking perennial that will amaze everyone who sees it.
The elegant flower spike of this variety is packed with creamy-white flowers with orange anthers which will add classic style to your garden.
A relatively compact form, 'Tropical Dream' tolerates more exposed positions where it will put on a dazzling display.
Also known as Desert Candles, the impressive flower spires are packed with star-shaped blooms, creating a bottlebrush effect.
The flowers open from the bottom of the spike upwards in a wave of subtle colour change that cannot be missed, and the tails often bend as they grow - looking even more like the jaunty tail of a fox.
Growing to (1.2m) 4ft tall, these fully hardy, dramatic-looking plants are perfect for the back of sunny borders where the towering spikes emerge from fleshy roots, which are not unlike a giant starfish. The orange blooms are long lasting and over the years they will grow into large, prolific clumps.
Easy to grow and supplied as an established plant in a 4L pot, ready for immediate planting - then you can leave them alone!
