Colleen,

Considering the geographic and elevational range of Milkmaids it should be
at least as hardy as most cismontane brodiaeas. It grows in shady places in
woodlands or on rocky slopes. I have only grown it incidentally and it
seems to benefit from some soil moisture while formant. The "tubers" are
rather deep (5-6" or more down). It is quite beautiful and unaccountably
scarce in cultivation.
