Camassia can be a wonderfully useful plant in the garden. Not only is it one of the few bulbs happy in heavy, moist soil, it also flowers during that scant time between spring and early summer when little else is peaking. Left undisturbed, camassia bulbs will multiply to form naturalised clumps, and can be relied upon to return year after year. Though slender and willowy, camassia flower spikes are made of sturdy stuff and stand up well to wind and rain without the need for staking. The racemes of large, star-like flowers create a bluebell-like haze of colour when planted en masse, whether in a grassy meadow or in drifts throughout a border. This collection brings together Camassia cusickii, a soft, pale blue variety reaching 1m in height, and the slightly beefier Camassia leichtlinii 'Alba', its creamy white spires growing to 1.2m. Choose a reliably moist spot in sun or dappled shade and plant as many as you can! Avoid anywhere prone to winter waterlogging. Hardy to between -5 C and -10 C.
