LEWISIA (Leu-is’-i-a)—Bitter Root 
A group of rock plants so choice that they merit the 
very best spot in any rockery. Being. natives of the 
Northwest, they are perfectly hardy anywhere, but de- 
mand perfect drainage. Plant in a soil composed of 
good loam, sand and stone chips or fine gravel and 
success is assured. 
*columbianum ingala—A strong growing form with dainty 
sprays of pink flowers. 50c each 
*columbianum rosea—Fat little leaves make up an ever- 
green rosette from which spring wiry stems carrying 
lovely deep pink flowers. 35c each 
*rediviva—In the late summer and fall this little gem sends 
up many fat needle-like leaves forming a dense rosette. 
In May a great bunch of buds appear each on a separate 
stem which open into flowers 2” across of rich satiny 
texture very similar to the Cactus bloom. The color 
varies from pure white to deep rose-pink, the darker 
colors predominating. After blooming the entire plant 
disappears for about two months. Best planted in 
colonies of 6 to 12 in dry exposed position. 
25c each; 3 for 65c; doz. $2.50 
*tweedyi—Considered one of the four best rock plants in the 
entire world. Large, fleshy leaves with a very glossy fin- 
ish form a beautiful rosette. Old plants will have four or 
five of these rosettes. From these, myriads of large 
waxen flowers of apricot-salmon arise on 6” stems. The 
individual flowers are 2” across and old plants in the 
wild have been observed with as many as 200 blooms. 
This is positively one of the most beautiful plants in culti- 
vation today. For best results we suggest removing dirt 
to depth of 5” and plant in pure sand. The roots will soon 
grow out of the sand and the crown will be protected from 
excessive moisture, which seems to be its only enemy.
