How to Grow Camassia Leichtlinii Alba Bulbs in Ireland

Plant Camassia leichtlinii ‘Alba’ bulbs (White Camassia) in autumn for late spring to early summer flowers. These stately plants thrive in moist but well-drained soil, making them perfect for Irish gardens - especially in damp borders, meadows, and the edges of ponds or woodland.

• Planting Depth: 10–15 cm deep

• Spacing: 15–20 cm apart

• Soil: Moist, fertile, humus-rich soil (tolerates clay and heavy soils)

• Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade

• Blooming Time: May to June

• Height: 80 cm

• Growing Tip: Water during dry spells in spring. Leave foliage to die back naturally to feed the bulb. Ideal for naturalising in large groups for a soft, meadow-like look.

Camassia leichtlinii ‘Alba’ is highly attractive to bees and pollinators, offering reliable nectar during the late spring gap when few other bulbs are in flower.
