Idaho Bitterroot

Quick Facts

Morning Sun and Afternoon Shade Xeric Western Only  Legend

Description:

3” x 4-5” wide, (seed propagated). The state flower of Idaho, this succulent wildflower was first recorded by Lewis and Clark who learned to eat (but never like) the bitter, carrot-like roots as they crossed the mountains of Idaho. Lewisia redivida has succulent foliage and a showy early spring display of 2” wide satiny rose-pink flowers. Plant in a spot with afternoon shade and well-drained rocky or lean loam soils. Don’t irrigate in summer to let it rest in a state of summer dormancy. Zones 3-7.
