How to grow Camassia 'Orion'

  • Low

Keep in mind when planting that Orion is thought of as hardy, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Ideally plant in loamy, clay and sandy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.1 and 7.8 as Orion likes to be in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.
