Foxtail Lilies, don’t grow from bulbs, instead they are spidery looking tubers planted in the fall at the same time as tulips and daffodils. They are large plants requiring their space and send up giant bushy flower spires in a variety or reds, oranges and yellows as well as white. They bloom in May/June and can reach 3-6 feet tall.

Flower for Saturday is a Teddy Bear Sunflower! Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Teddy Bear is thought of as half hardy, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. The USDA Hardiness Zones typically associated with Teddy Bear are Zone 4 and Zone 9. Ensure your soil has a ph of between 5.7 and 8.1 as Teddy Bear is a weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil loving plant. Happy Saturday!
