question about curtains/drapes and baseboard heat

I have a large bay window in my living room, and I would love to hang drapes...but the baseboard radiator is right below the window.

My question is...can I have floor length drapes or will they catch on fire?? TIA! Chat Icon

My mom always had floor length drapes in our house, and we had baseboard heat. I'd check to see what they are lined with- though I'm sure it's not flammable but I'd want to be on the safe side.
