Camassia Leichtlinii Blue Heaven
M5207
The airy spires of sky-blue Camassia ‘Leichtlinii Blue Heaven’ are a welcome sight when blooming amongst long grass, proudly announcing the start of summer.
This blissful Camassia produces delicate, spidery florets of icy blue with pronounced golden stamens, clustered along slender stems up to 65cm tall. The flower spikes are wonderful for cutting, adding texture and height to seasonal bouquets and flower arrangements.
Plant the bulbs in clusters or ribbons through meadow areas and garden borders, in moisture retentive soil to glow in the sun and dance in the June breeze.
A useful and striking plant to fill the gap between spring bulbs and summer-flowering perennials.
Care Guide
Thrives in wet and heavy soil, although prolonged water-logging 4 throughout the winter can lead to rotting. Requires sun or partial shade. Plant 10cm (4”) deep, 15cm (6”) apart.
