A hardy perennial plant of the Portulacaceae family (APG classification: Aquilinaceae). Approximately 20 species are distributed in northwestern North America. It has a fleshy rhizome that is almost stemless. Narrow, fleshy leaves grow directly from the rhizome and grow densely. From April to June, it produces a flower stalk, at the end of which one or many flowers bloom. Flower colors include white, pale pink, red, and yellow. The well-known L. cotyledon Robins. grows wild in gravel and among rocks in the high mountains from Oregon to California. It is resistant to dryness but weak to humidity, and there are many horticultural varieties. It produces beautiful, many flowers in a panicle, and is sold commercially as a potted plant. Flower colors include peach, pink-pink, orange (sour orange), and white.
