In areas with heavy clay soils, grow Alpine plants in pots or containers to help prevent waterlogging.
How to Water
Water moderately until established then during dry spells through the growing season and more sparingly in autumn and winter.
How to Plant
Plant in full sun in light, freely draining soil, adding horticultural grit into the hole before planting to help improve drainage. Backfill the hole, gently firming down as you go and water in well.
