Alpine mix P14

The Alpine Mix is a versatile blend of compact, flowering alpine plants selected to suit Irish conditions, bringing colour and texture to rock gardens, containers, and border edges. Plants in the mix range from low, ground-hugging forms to slightly taller varieties for a layered display. Best in a sunny spot with some light shade at times, they need well-drained soil—sandy or loamy and moderately fertile—to avoid waterlogging. Flowering typically peaks from spring into early summer, with varied shapes and colours depending on the selection.
