Planting young plants
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
Young plants are readily available from good nurseries specialising in alpine perennials. Plant on in full sun in light and well drained soil. It does not react well to wet foliage in winter thus any shelter that can be provided over the wetter months will benefit this plant.
