Camassia

description Camassia Overview

Camassia is a genus of bulbous perennial plants native to North America and placed in the asparagus family, Asparagaceae. Its spring flower spikes are commonly blue, lilac, or white, while the bulbs of several species were gathered, cooked, and eaten as a starch by Indigenous peoples of western North America. Camassia is therefore both an ornamental bulb genus and an important ethnobotanical subject, and it must be distinguished from toxic death camas, whose bulbs can look similar.
