As winter
comes to it's close, the bright and cheerful flowers of alpines and rock garden
plants introduce much-needed colour into our gardens. Being used to extreme
conditions, Alpines are extremely hardy, despite their delicate appearance.
There is
a huge range to choose from, options looking good now include Aubrietia with its
masses of traditionally blue or purple flowers, Saxifrage in shades of white, pink and red and Arabis with its bigger leaves and small pink flowers.
Alpines
are easy to grow in the garden but are equally as home in a container. Here
they can be combined with other foliage alpines such as Sedum and Sempervivums
or small evergreen conifers or shrubs to create a mixed display. We sell alpines in 9cm pots £1.99 or 3 for £5 and
larger 1 litre pots £3.49 or 3 for £10.
