Camassia


Camassia

Sorry its a trifle out of focus! These are the first Ive grown and it wont be the last. They are really elegant and the bees were there as soon as it opened! Waiting for the Alba one now.

Those are pretty. How tall have they grown, Tetrarch ?

About 2 - 2.5 feet Terra, I think they may make higher when more mature

Actually grew them in pots over the winter..I was worried about overwintering slugs and snail getting at the bulb!

Thanks Yorkie..what you cant see is where the camassia is..my garden table (seats 6) covered in plants, a mini greenhouse and two sets of shelves..plants on the steps to french doors...I no longer have a "terrace dahling", plants all down the steps and on the garden benches (both) and all around and inside the greenhouse, and thats AFTER I sold a load..have about 100 empty pots to wash!!
Still once down the bottom of the steps its not half bad I guess lol! Oh forgot, we planted 40 irises, 4 roses, 5 clematis, 3 camassia, 3 astrantia, and have a dozen more plants to go! I didnt do a blog about all that, folks 'd be bored silly by the end of it!
Im just waiting with bated breath and camera for all my irises to bloom..next lot any day now!
Blimey, you post six words, and I end up with verbal whatsits!

DD there are so many lovely gardens and plants on here, dont want to clutter! Did a blog on Gazebo and posted a few blooms, I would think other folks would like a chance to show off their beauties...and there are sooo many of them!Besides which, I'm planning to visit a few of you so will have plenty to post then lol!
