Lewisia/Bitter Root – Elise Mix

Description

Lewisia cotyledon ‘Elise’ is a game-changer for home gardeners, offering a significant improvement over older Lewisia varieties. This hardy perennial thrives in heat, reblooms up to four times throughout spring and summer, and boasts exceptionally vibrant flower colors. Compact 6–8″ rosettes of fleshy leaves support sturdy, non-flopping flower stems, each reaching 6–8″ tall and bursting with brilliant blooms.

Highly drought-tolerant, Elise requires excellent drainage and even thrives when planted in rock crevices or walls. To ensure its success, avoid overwatering—especially in winter. With its resilience and repeat blooms, this Lewisia is an easy, low-maintenance choice for rock gardens, containers, or dry landscapes.
