Camassia scilloides aka Wild Hyacinth

Wild Hyacinth is a low-maintenance plant that requires minimal attention, making it an excellent choice for beginners.

Wild Hyacinth should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Wild Hyacinth loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Wild Hyacinth prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

Ploi's records do not contain confirmed information on the toxicity of this particular plant. In the event of accidental ingestion of plant material with questionable toxicity by you, a family member, or a pet, it is always a good idea to consult a healthcare professional.

The growth of Wild Hyacinth is not rapid and it doesn't necessitate any extra fertilization. By replacing its potting soil once a year, it should receive ample nutrition. It is important to note that plants obtain their energy from the sun's rays, not from fertilizers.

The Wild Hyacinth is clumping in nature, with new growth originating from the soil in close proximity to the original plant.

Wild Hyacinth’s native range is Eastern N. America. - Ontario to Wisconsin and southwards.
