Notes
'Moneta' foxtail lily (Eremurus 'Moneta') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer on tall spikes that reach about 71 inches, and bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and birds visit the flowers. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. N.C. Ruiter bred it.
