White Camassia

Camassia leichtlinii 'Alba Plena' brings a calm, creamy-white elegance to the garden just as spring begins to hand over to summer. Upright spires of starry, semi-double blooms rise neatly above fresh green foliage, lending height and lightness without ever feeling showy.

Particularly handsome threaded through meadow-style grass or allowed to drift through the back of a border, this is a refined choice for naturalising—returning with increasing presence over time. The stems also cut beautifully for simple, architectural arrangements.

Camassia leichtlinii 'Silk River' is a quietly striking camas, sending up poised spires of creamy-white, star-shaped flowers that unfurl from fresh lime-green buds in late spring and early summer. The effect is light, elegant and effortlessly natural—particularly when allowed to drift through grass, at the woodland edge, or threaded between perennials.

It’s a refined choice for gardeners who favour a softer, more meadow-like finish, yet it holds its own in a well-dressed border. Plant in groups for a calm, architectural rhythm, and enjoy stems that also lend themselves beautifully to a simple vase indoors.
