Camassia

 Do not Feed
  • Common Name: Camassia
  • Latin Name: Camassia spp.
  • Family Name: Hyacinthaceae, Agavaceae

Although there is no known toxicity, and parts of the plant are eaten by humans, it is a bulb, and plants from bulbs are generally thought to be unsafe for tortoises.  Not to be confused with Zigadenus, which looks similar and is very toxic, so to avoid problems this is a plant that is probably best avoided, although if you have it in the garden and your tortoise takes a nibble there will probably be no harm done.

This flowers of this plant come in either blue or white.
