Camassia

Hi There,

I am thinking of getting some camassia bulbs to put in somewhere near the summer perennials.

Does each bulb only produce one spike and flower?.. Or does it produce a clump of flowers?.. Just thinking about overall impact when I'm planting them.

Thanks for your help!!

    After a few years mine seem to have several flowers for each bulb that I planted. Whether that's several from the one bulb, or the original bulb has produced offsets  (as daffodils do) I don't know. 

    They're Camassia leichtlinii Caerulea,  and they love it in my heavy clay, saturated in winter, wild flower meadow.
