  • Camassia quamash, commonly known as wild hyacinth, is a hardy Spring flowering perennial bulb known for its elegant spikes of star shaped blue to violet blooms which are similar to bluebells. Flowering in late Spring to early Summer, it adds a graceful vertical element to borders and naturalistic planting schemes.

  • Plant Camassia bulbs in Autumn in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil. They thrive in full sun or partial shade and prefer soil that doesn't dry out completely in Spring. Space bulbs approximately 10-15 cm apart and plant at a depth two to three times the height of the bulb. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally as it continues feeding the bulb for next year’s growth.

  • Camassia is perfect for naturalising in meadows, cottage gardens, and woodland edges, where it creates beautiful drifts of colour. It is also effective in flower beds, borders, and even large patio containers. These versatile bulbs pair well with other late Spring flowering plants and can also be used as cut flowers to bring their wild charm indoors.
