Eremurus stenophyllus

Eremurus stenophyllus, the narrow-leaved foxtail lily, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asphodelaceae, native to central Asia. It is an herbaceous perennial growing to 1 m tall and broad, with narrow strap-shaped leaves. Racemes composed of small yellow flowers appear in summer. The flowers darken to brown from the base, forming a two-tone effect with age.

The specific epithet stenophyllus is derived from the Greek stenos (narrow) and phyllon (leaf) to give "with narrow leaves".

This plant is grown as a garden perennial for a sunny border, and has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Though hardy down to -20 C, in colder areas it benefits from the shelter of a wall.

Two subspecies are listed, E. stenophyllus subsp. ambigens, and E. stenophyllus subsp. aurantiacus.
