I know, Martin, aren't they lovely? ... all the pix but DS' ones on them in their natural habitat are just glorious.

Hopefully going to the states earlier than usual next year , specifically to photograph Lewisia in the field . If I'm lucky Sean Hogan is going to help out for a day or two

Not up to Michael's standard or indeed to Martin's show plants but pretty nonetheless.

Lewisia cotyledon, an apricot/pink form grown from seed some years ago.
L. cotyledon 'Snowstorm'
L. cotyledon var. howellii
L. cotyledon Sunset Strain a nice magenta

Lovely David, show potential in every one.

[David Nicholson]

Thanks Martin, I don't seem to be able to get them to good sized plants though.

[Graham Catlow]

Very nice David I like them all.

[David Nicholson]

Thanks Graham

[Michael J Campbell]

Very nice David, I like that  apricot/pink 
I find they do better in plastic pots, but you have to be more careful with the watering can.

[Luc Gilgemyn]

Great and good looking youngsters David !!!

Thanks for that Michael, I think you're right about the plastic pots and that is what I shall do when I re-pot them.

Just a tiny plant but very pretty. Lewisia columbiana alba
