Newly planted lava rock "mini" garden
« on: March 28, 2014, 12:00:47 AM »
I just mounted/planted the first two plants on my "mini" lava rock garden. Silene acaulis 'Francis' and Saxifraga longifolia. I've spent the better part of a year cultivating moss down the "slope" side for the Campion to spread onto. We'll see how it goes!

Looking forward to future posts showing the progress of the plantings.

I'm hoping to seed some small spreading/ mounding species in the gravel on top. I can't wait for the Campion to start creeping around in all of its pink glory :-)
