CAMAS

Camassia quamash Electric blue to indigo star shape flowers create a dramatic backdrop to the bright yellow anthers. One to three inflorescences emerge on a single stalk and tall raceme is excellent for cutting. This unique meadow bulb tolerates wetland conditions and deep shade in the spring, preferring to dry out later in the summer. Endemic to western North America and naturalizing abundantly. This native species was an essential food source for Indigenous people, producing sweet, edible bulbs when roasted. Hardy in zones 3–8.  

Starts shipping in September until sold out. Order early for best availability. Detailed planting instructions are included with each order, and may be obtained below. Available only within the contiguous US.

Camas!

I was curious to learn that it was grown in the Netherlands (according to the package) when it's a native plant here. Well, I've planted mine and will have to wait until next year to see it come up. I know it's a gorgeous flower so I'm looking forward to it blooming next spring.

never came up

Even though I followed the directions implicitly, these plants never came up.
Sad! My goal is to fill my yard with native plants - and this one is a beauty.
If you have suggestions, and can send me some more that would be amazing!

While camas gets planted in the fall, it doesn't come up until spring. So come mid to late spring you should have some lovely blooms! Please keep us posted on how they do.
