Its not really the time of year at the moment as a lot are finishing flowering, but go to your local nursery, market or garden centre and head for the alpine section. Dont be ripped off though. For a small alpine you should only pay about £1.00. I recently did my front garden with alpines and this year they have come up a treat.





Choose plants like saxifraga, aubrieta, phlox %26amp; frigillanas Herbs and lavender also do really well. There are loads, loads more to choose from i just cant remember all the names!! Have a look on internet to get some ideas.





Good Luck!!
