Susan, I have seen pictures of foxtail lilies. They are stunning. I think
the botanical name is EREMURUS. I purchased 5 bulbs, mail order, from The
Daffodil Mart, planted them early spring. Haven't seen a sign of them yet
and I don't know what they are supposed to look like when they start coming
up and, of course, I have all kinds of shoots coming up all around. Don't
know if one of these are them. If anyone has experience with them, I would
love to know too. I understand they can get up to 6 feet tall. If they
eventually emerge I will let you know my experience.
