    These foxtail lilies are perfect for cutting! They can reach up to 5 feet high and are glowing with color. This mixture includes white, pink, orange, yellow, and cream. Each pack offers a different combination of color. Don't miss out on these early summer blooms! As an added bonus to these glowing beauties, they are not favored by deer, rabbits or other rodents.

    Foxtail Lilies require excellent drainage, and do best in sandy soils. If your soil is on the heavy side be sure to add planting mix, and organic matter such as compost or manure to help improve drainage. If planting in colder climates, provide winter protection with mulch. Once established Foxtail Lilies will live in the same location for a long time without division required.

    • Foxtail Lilies prefer a full sun location
    • Well drained soil is a MUST for the area you are planting foxtail lilies.
    • Improve soil drainage by adding organic matter like compost, manure or peat humus to the planting area. You may also plant in a raised bed that you have added well drained soil to.
    • The dormant bulb/root of the foxtail lily are large in diameter and spread out at least 6". Therefore the planting hole will need to be dug out to a width of near 12" to accommodate the large roots.
    • Plant Foxtail lily roots 2" deep.
    • Mulch for winter protection when planting in hardiness zone 5 and 6.

    This fall, I purchased a ridiculous amount of bulbs in hopes for an amazing spring presentation. Every year, I only order from Holland Bulbs and it doesn’t disappoint. I also order for my mother’s yard as her Mother’s Day present. All the bulbs were healthy and nice.

    Pros:
    Cons:
    While my order was not initially processed correctly (2 lilies sent to my Mom for her birthday instead of 2 packages of 5 lilies each), customer service was prompt in making it good- even though the website at that point said this item was out of stock, and my Mom had already planted the 2 lilies, she was shipped 2 packages of the same item. I was very pleased with this outcome and would highly recommend Holland Bulbs Farms!

    Pros:
    • Quality
    Cons:
    My order of Shelford's Fox Tail Lilies arrived quite promptly. I had ordered rather late in the Fall planting season and was pleasantly surprise to open the box to fresh bulbs. I planted them immediately as directed and covered well with mulch. Now I can hardly wait for Spring to arrive to see how they do here in Zone 5-6 on Lake Huron. I am rating this based on bulbs only since it is the end of the growing season.
