Lewisia 'Little Mango' is a delightful semi-evergreen succulent that adds a vibrant pop of colour to your garden with minimal fuss. Its compact rosettes, growing to just 10-15cm in height, are a perfect size for rockeries, pots, containers, or small garden spaces. The blooms, in a beautiful peachy orange with a hint of white along the edges, seem to glow in the sunlight, bringing a warm, cheerful touch to any planting scheme. Lewisia 'Little Mango' is a true gem for those looking to introduce a touch of tropical colour to their garden without the need for high-maintenance care.
Lewisia 'Little Mango' thrives in well-drained soil and a sunny or partial shady spot, where its rosettes can form tight clusters, adding both texture and colour to your garden. It’s perfect for planting in crevices, containers, or as a low-growing accent in borders. The peachy-orange blooms are not only striking but also long-lasting, ensuring that your garden stays vibrant throughout the growing season. For a plant that delivers both beauty and practicality with ease, Lewisia 'Little Mango' is a fantastic choice for gardeners looking to brighten up their outdoor space with minimal effort.
Our Lewisia 'Little Mango' plants are supplied as a 9cm pot with healthy growth, ensuring a strong start. They are carefully shipped in our unique cardboard box, designed to keep them safe and in top condition. This ensures they arrive healthy and ready to thrive in their new home.

Plant calendar
Check each plant’s specifications. Hardy perennials can remain outdoors, while half-hardy and tender varieties should be kept frost-free until the risk of frost has passed.
Plant within a month, preferably sooner. Choose a suitable position, remove weeds and loosen the soil thoroughly, adding compost or well-rotted organic matter where needed.
Gently remove the plant from its pot and plant with the root ball level with the soil surface. Firm gently, water well and add a plant label.
Water regularly until established and whenever the soil feels dry during spring and summer. Feed container-grown plants fortnightly during active growth to encourage healthy flowering.
