Bitterroot Lewisia cotyledon 4”—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage
Meet the Bitterroot Lewisia cotyledon 4”, a cheerful mountain native with a flair for blooming in tough spots.

Hardy and handsome—just like your favourite hiking trail.
The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Thrives in full sun to bright light. Loves soaking up rays, indoors or out.
• Water: Drought-tolerant once established. Let soil dry between waterings—this one does not like soggy roots.
• Humidity: Prefers dry air—no misting required. Alberta’s natural climate suits it just fine.
What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: Constant blooms, perky foliage, and a compact rosette form.
• Needs TLC: Mushy leaves or crown rot? You’re probably watering too much—cut back and check drainage.
Good News for Pet Parents:
Yes! Lewisia is non-toxic, making it safe for curious pets and small humans alike.
