Camassia scilloides is a perennial herb known commonly as Atlantic camas, wild hyacinth,[2] and eastern camas.[3] It is native to the eastern half of North America, including Ontario and the eastern United States.[3]
It produces inflorescences up to half a meter tall from a bulb 1 to 3 centimeters wide. It has a few leaves each up to 60 centimeters long. The flowers have light blue or whitish tepals and yellow anthers. The green or brown capsule is up to a centimeter long.[3]
Native American groups used the bulbs for food, eating them raw, baked, roasted, boiled, or dried.[4]
