Description

Eremurus 'Brun' is a perennial plant with fleshy roots that blooms in summer. From June to July, it bears flowering stems composed of hundreds of small golden yellow flowers. The star-shaped flowers open from the bottom up, creating a flowering period that lasts for several weeks.

 

Eremurus 'Brun' is native to Asia. This majestic plant reaches a height of 2m (7ft), with its flowering stems measuring 1m (3ft) in height. The bulb, formed by large fleshy roots surrounding a bud, resembles an octopus. This tuberous stump measures 20cm (8in) in diameter. It produces elongated leaves up to 1m (3ft) in height. The leaves are deciduous and dry up when the first flowers appear, making it ideal for perennial borders that can hide its bare base. However, the border should not be too compact to avoid suffocating this plant. It is very hardy.

This outdoor plant can be found in groups or individually. It can be placed in borders, rockeries, and containers in small gardens. It also looks great on patios.

Planting and care

Plant Eremurus 'Brun' during September-October in a sunny location, sheltered from the wind to prevent damage to the flower stalks. Place it in rich, fertile, moist but well-drained soil. If the soil is not well-drained enough, you can mix sand with the soil at the time of planting; well-drained soil allows for better root development. Plant the stumps in autumn at a depth of 7cm (3in), no more, as it needs to be quickly warmed up when spring arrives. Winter moisture is fatal to it, so protect it with a covering of compost without touching the collar. The young shoots must be protected with a dry mulch. The plant does not require staking. Eremurus can be attacked by slugs
