Camas

Overview

Camassia quamash, commonly known as Camas, is a perennial bulbous plant reaching 1-3 feet in height. It boasts striking star-shaped blue to violet flowers in late spring to early summer. Thriving in USDA zones 4-8, it prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-draining soil. Ideal for naturalizing in meadows or as a border accent, Camas is deer-resistant, attracting pollinators with its nectar-rich blooms.
