Bulb planting at Kew
A drift of flowering bulbs
Camassia leichtlinii
Camas lily
The flower heads of Camassia leichtlinii, the Camas lily, provide masses of blue, star-shaped flowers in May and June, and grow up to a metre tall.
Best grown in areas where they can naturalise and remain undisturbed, they make a stunning display when planted en masse.
9,000 bulbs are planted on Riverside Walk.
