Should You Deadhead Camassia

This deadheading is useful for all the big bulbs that will include the hyacinths, camassias, and lilies. For the tiny bulbs with more dainty anatomy, structure, and size such as scilla, crocus, snowdrops, and chionodoxa, you can just let them simply fade.

Why are my Camassia not flowering?

Why are my Camassia not flowering as well as they used to? This is usually down to one or two reasons – lack of moisture or overcrowded clump has formed. … Camassia are bone hardy. All our container-grown stock are grown outside in North Yorkshire all year around with no cover whatsoever.

Do Camassia like sun or shade?

Plant camassia bulbs in autumn, in humus-rich, moisture-retentive soil in full sun or part shade. They’re happy in heavy clay soil and will grow in acid, neutral or alkaline soil. Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering and divide congested clumps in summer.
