Neals Camassia look really super. Having big clumps like that is for sure how it should be planted Smiling

I have grown 'Blue Melody' but it didn't really like it here, never bloomed much and the foliage was a bit floppy. I do have a dry sandy soil, so I tried planting it where it would get a bit more moisture, but it's possible that it still didn't get enough or that it would have liked a bit more sun. I ended up discarding it after a few years as other bulbs do much better here and this one would never naturalise here. However I have been thinking about planting some of the larger ones (in particularly I like the sky blue color of Camassia leichtlinii 'Blue Heaven') and perhaps will do so next year, so thanks for reminding me with this thread and thanks to Neal for posting those lovely images.
