Camas is one of my favorite native plants of Idaho. It is not only beautiful but its roots were a major food source for native people before white settlers arrived. Here are two pictures. One is from my yard where we have put a few camas plants. They require a lot of water, so we are very careful with them. The second picture is a field of camas on what is called the Camas Prairie. My picture doesn’t really do justice to them. From a distance, they look like a sea of blue. Leslie


I love both these pictures, Leslie. I didn’t know such a flower existed or that a scene such as “Sea of Blue” existed.

Leslie, these are beautiful! I mentioned I am partial to blues and purples in a garden. I’m sure the wild mass planting is stunning.
Oh Leslie, that sea of blue makes me long to be in Idaho again! What a breathtaking sight that is!
