The most economical way to purchase your plants. Securely rooted, strong plants in mini-plugs of compost. Will need to be transplanted and grown on before planting out ready to flower. Tender varieties will need protecting from frost. Compost volume around 2.6cm deep x 1.8cm square. Foliage height 1.5cm-5cm (depending on variety). Full growing instructions are provided.

Being alpine plants, Saxifragas prefer a well-drained site but need a soil that holds moisture that is not waterlogged so incorporating grit at the time of planting is beneficial along with a mixture of well-rotted manure or leaf mould mixed with garden soil should be ideal.
Although they need a good amount of light, too much exposure to direct sunshine can cause them to suffer so a top-dressing of coarse grit will hold in moisture in dry periods. In drought conditions they will need watering.
