About That Camassia

The earliest digital image I have of the camassia in question is from 
2009. So it is long lived but not multiplying to any great extent. Here 
is an image from 2017 where the lower flowers have gone over and seed 
capsules are swelling. It does not look to me as if the withering tepals 
are clasping anything much. Jane McGary, is the image of any help?

It is the only camassia in my garden. The bulb has apparently divided, 
as there are two "twinned" growing points / flower stalks. A handsome 
bulb, to be sure.

Judy in now partially sunny, somewhat cloudy New Jersey. Today did not 
see my good intentions vis-a-vis potting canna actually happen. But 
there is always tomorrow. Plus the dormant eucomis in the basement are 
pushing up pale little nubbins of growth. They may have to be satisfied 
with top-dressing rather than all out repotting this year.
