Columbia Lewisia is an attractive wildflower which may be used in the rock garden. It is a succulent perennial with a thick, well branched, fleshy root with numerous leaves at its base. Flowers can be white with pink venation to magenta-rose. It is best suited for dry conditions, but can survive for several years in west side gardens if given sufficient ventilation or provided with cover to protect it from the rain.
