Lewisia Little Peach

Lewisias are found in the sub-alpine regions of CA where the soil is rocky, making them perfectly suited for a well-drained rock garden. This evergreen perennial grows from a rosette of fleshy foliage and produces spectacular funnel-shaped flowers that emerge from 10” stems. The flowers also attract hummingbirds.

The better drainage, the happier they are. Prefers light shade but can tolerate full sun. Water it regularly (but sparingly) to enjoy a long period of successive blooms. Perfect for a rock garden or in a pot.

This selection features large star-shaped flowers of lovely apricot-peach, kissed with soft yellow.
