Camassia quamash. Naturalising
(Camassia esculenta). These were a food plant for native Americans but you would need a lot of these tiny bulbs to make a meal! Deep blue spikes of flowers with bright golden stamens. Naturalises well and is a good foil for the Pheasant Eye Narcissus (poeticus recurvus). It is rather like a slender, upright bluebell. Plant the bulbs in the autumn. Summer dormant.
Height: 12"
