Flowering Alpine Collection
Petite Perfection
- If you’ve got rocky or dry, chalky soil, then you might have thought flowering plants were out of the question. This, however, couldn’t be further from the truth. Our Flowering Alpine Collection has been curated specifically with such gardens in mind.
- Featuring a mix of low-growing, matforming and clumping perennials that are as tough as their flowers are pretty to look at, this collection will help turn even the most barren of spaces into a planting paradise.
- Including plants that hold the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, as well as their Plants for Pollinators certification, you’re getting proven winners *and* doing your bit for wildlife at the same time!
- Plant on an exposed slope, in a rockery or even in containers on your patio (this last option is especially useful for gardeners who have heavy clay soil that drains poorly).
- This page includes selected AI-assisted imagery, checked by our growers, for illustrative purposes.
