Deathcamas features clusters of small, creamy-white to pale yellow flowers, each exhibiting a unique star-shaped pattern with six pointed tepals surrounding a prominent central pistil. The foliage consists of narrow, lance-shaped leaves that ascend the stem, providing a grass-like appearance. The plant typically reaches heights of approximately 1 to 3 feet (30 to 90 cm) and blooms during the spring to summer transition. Its flowering stalks emerge from a basal rosette, and the plant may exhibit a smooth, almost glossy stem, distinguishing it from its more pubescent relatives.
