Camassia Leichtlinii Silk River Bulbs
Delivery: End Aug to Dec
Creamy-white. Camassia Silk River is a pretty recent introduction. The lime-green buds open to reveal the open star shaped flowers held in mass along the stems. Silk River is a shorter growing than it’s brothers and sisters but it still has the wow factor. Camassia are excellent for naturalising in the woodland garden, meadow or garden border and will tolerate moist conditions in the garden that are well drained.
