    Camassia leichtlinii 'Pink Star' plant details

    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Camassia leichtlinii 'Pink Star' represents a new colour dimension for great camas lilies: pink! These wonderful spires of star-shaped light pink flowers will rise on reddish stems in spring. This is a larger and more stately species than C. quamash. Native from BC to southern California. Camassia grow in winter-wet soils that dry out in summer which means they will be tolerant of clay-heavy garden soils.
