How to choose the best alpines and rock garden plants

Why not try growing alpines such as Gypsophila cerastioides, Lithodora diffusa ‘Heavenly Blue’, and Erigeron karvinskianus in a pot or trough where their dainty flowers can be really appreciated. You’ll find the perfect containers in our carefully curated range. Looking for expert growing advice? Read our alpines masterclass or visit our dedicated hub page for a wealth of information about growing alpine and rockery plants.

Which alpine and rockery plants flower the earliest?

Violas and the daisy flowers of Bellis perennis will appear from February onwards. Aubrieta flowers from March while, in a mild year, Pansy ‘Frizzle Sizzle Orange’ will flower from autumn to spring.

Which alpine and rockery plants are suitable for shade?

Campanula portenschlagiana ‘Catharina’, Ajuga reptans, Polypodium vulgare, and Blechnum spicant will all grow well in dappled shade.
