Lewisia rediviva is an enchanting perennial, better known as Bitterroot, that truly embodies a combination of strength, beauty, and resistance. A star in the Annuals & Perennials collection, it originates from western North America and thrives even in arid settings with well-draining soil due to its striking drought tolerance.

As late spring rolls into early summer, you will be treated to a spectacle of vibrant colors, ranging from pure white to deep pink, adding a dash of brightness to your landscape.
