Lewisias

The deciduous lewisias, especially rediviva, do very well
here in full sun with some protection from excess summer
moisture under the garage eaves. I've got a bunch of L.
cotyledon seedlings from Ron Ratko seed and would
appreciate advice on siting them here in SE PA -
particularly with respect to amount of sun they will take
and how much moisture they would like in the summer.
Always on the scrounge - I'd also love seed of Lewisia
tweedyi if anyone has any spare. I have one plant outside
that seems to be doing well but the others rotted off. I
think I have a better feel for what they need now.
Thanks,
J.
