Planting

From Early Autumn TO Late Spring

Plant alpine species (low growing) in any ordinary, well-drained soil in a sunny position from early Autumn to mid Spring,. The herbaceous perennial varieties should be planted between mid Autumn and late Spring in ordinary soil enriched with well rotted manure. The soil should be well drained but moisture retentive. Choose a site in full sun or partial shade. On exposed sites, stake the plants with twiggy supports.

 

Propagation by Division

From Late Winter TO Late Winter

All species except the invasive V. cinerea and C. pectinata can be propagated by division which should occur every third year.

 

Propogation by Cuttings

From Mid Summer TO Late Summer

All species can be increased from 2 inch cuttings of lateral shoots, taken in mid to late Summer
