Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Medicinal | Edible Uses Latin Name: Eremurus anisopterus Family: Asphodelaceae Author: (Karel.&Kir.)Reg. Known Hazards: None known Mature Height: 0.6 Mature Width: Habitat: Wet sands[74]. Dry sands according to another report[200].
Propagation Notes: Seed - best sown as soon as it is ripe in the autumn in a cold frame[200]. Sow stored seed in a greenhouse as soon as it is obtained. Germination is slow and could take 1 - 12 months at 15°c. Prick out the seedlings into individual pots as soon as they are large enough to handle and grow on for their first winter in a greenhouse. Plant out into their permanent positions in late spring after the last expected frosts. Do not plant deeply in the soil, the crown of the plant should be slightly exposed[245].
Division after the plant dies down in late summer. Great care must be taken because the plants resent root disturbance[200]. Only divide the plants when it is really necessary, and no more frequently than once every 6 years, being careful not to break the brittle roots[245]. It is probably best to pot up the divisions and grow them on in the greenhouse until they are established.
