How to Sow and Plant

Prepare a well-drained garden site in full sun to partial shade.


For best results, cold-stratify seeds for 4–8 weeks (e.g., place seed mix in moist sand in the fridge) before planting.


Sow seeds thinly on or just below the soil surface.

How to Grow


Maintain full sun to partial shade exposure.

Water moderately — avoid soggy conditions; thrives in well-drained soil.

Once established, plants generally require low maintenance.

Tips

Cold-stratify seeds prior to spring sowing for improved germination.

Group plantings for visual impact in meadow or perennial borders.

• Avoid planting where ingestion by animals or children may occur due to toxicity

PLANT TYPE

Perennial

Zigadenus elegans, commonly called Mountain Death Camas or White Camas, is a striking perennial prized for its graceful white, star-like flowers set above grassy foliage. Native to open prairies and slopes, this plant works beautifully in naturalistic garden layouts, meadow plantings, and wildlife-friendly beds. While visually appealing, all plant parts are toxic and should be placed where pets and children won’t access them.
