Found in Scotland as a chance seedling, this fabulous Lewisia is probably from a cross of L. longipetala and L. cotyledon. Magnificent purple-pink blossoms, with a hint of orange upon opening, are borne in profusion on a compact little plant. Attractive, leathery-leaved rosettes.  Lewisias are not hard to grow at all if you give them gritty soil, like in a rock garden or like me in clay pots with gravel in the mix.
