Camassia Leichtlinii Subsp. Caerulea Group | 2 Litre Pot

Spires of lilac flowers in May. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moist but well-drained, fertile, humus-rich, soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: May Hardiness: frost hardy (may need winter protection) Tall spires of star-shaped, mid-blue to lilac flowers appear above strap-like leaves in late spring. Originally from damp meadowlands in North America, this bulbous perennial is perfect for naturalising in a wildflower meadow. It will happily grow in moist soil in sun or partial shade as long as the soil doesn’t become waterlogged. Take advantage of its brief flowering season to brighten up a border before summer perennials take over. Garden care: Apply a generous layer of mulch around the crown in areas with hard frosts.
