Description
Lewisia cotyledon 'Sunset Strain' (Bitterroot) has evergreen succulent spoon-shaped leaves that grow several inches long while upright stems support the sprays of inch-wide colorful flowers. Winner of Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit. If it’s time to up your game with water saving plants, give beautiful Lewisia a try! Pollinator favorites and deer resistant, these hardy plants are long-lived when happy. Native to the rocky slopes of western North America, Lewisia is a resilient native perennial that thrives in fast-draining gravelly sites and low fertility soil. Great for rock walls, rock or alpine gardens, hillsides, or a rocky area where erosion control is needed. Plant Lewisia in full sun or morning sun and afternoon shade. Good drainage and lean soil are the keys to success with these plants, but water when flowering. Thanks to its compact form, it makes a lovely container plant too, just be sure to keep the soil lean and use a gravel mulch. Plant it with Aubrieta, Sedum, Sempervivum, and compact Penstemon.

"Beuatiful healthy product. Shipped securely."
Been blooming for 3 months, first year
"This plant started blooming first year and has been continually blooming for 3 months."
Container planting
"I am curious if this beautiful flower could be container planted? I know this isn't a review But I tried to do the chat but finally gave up from no response. I battle moles and gophers on the daily this time of year. Thank you"
I can't grow Lewisia for love nor money.
"I have tried to grow these 2 or 3 times without success. The plant was healthy on arrival. I placed it in a proper environment. And then it died."
Adorable and vibrant!
"This was one of the plants I was most excited to plant this year in my garden! It was very healthy when it arrived but it started to look like it wasn't going to survive after planting it in my garden. Fortunately, it settled into its new home nicely and started to thrive. Buds started to form in early June (about a month after planting) and they began blooming in mid-June. It is now full of vibrant, beautiful pink flowers. I am very excited to see how it progresses through its first season."
