Plant in a sunny location with soil that drains well. Foxtail Lily prefer sandy soil, if your soil is on the heavy side you will need to add organic matter to loosen it up. The dormant roots of Foxtail Lilies are large, and sprawling, often 6-8"+ in diameter. When preparing the planting location dig out the area 12" or more to allow for adequate space for the roots to grow and spread. The planting hole does should be shallow, planting only approximately 2" deep. In cold climates such as hardiness zone 5 and 6 be sure to add mulch for winter protection.
