Growing at a glance…

Camassia bulbs should be planted at least 10cm deep in fertile, well-drained, humus rich soil. Once planted, the bulbs can be left undisturbed for a couple of years to naturalise. Ensure there is good drainage in the soil and avoid the area becoming water-logged by over watering throughout the season. In areas of extreme cold in winter, it is always a good idea to apply some mulch as protection, like bark or a couple of cm of soil.
