crevice and or rockery in the green house

[mark smyth]

I'm a bit confused now. Are those plants inside or outside of the green house

[Mike Ireland]

Mark all the plants are inside the greenhouse, growing in the raised bed.  The greenhouse has lots of glass removed on the sides to allow good ventilation but all the plants are protected from overhead.

Sorry, Mark,
I've only just caught up with this thread and thought you might like to see these pics I took at Peter Korn's in 2007,
cheers

Fermi,

that is most impressive, thank you for showing. I'd love to know about the material and construction. Do you have any information?

[Maggi Young]

Maren.... Peter may have some details on his website....

This is how part of it looked in 2008 !

Myakea integrifolia ohhh. I have tried it twice from seedlings and each time they have died. Who has a spare plant? I'll go down on my knees 

[Maggi Young]

Myakea integrifolia, now Pulsatilla integrifolia will again be featured in the coming IRG....... for December....posted online for Friday 31st December..... ..... actually posted online on 24th December as an early Christmas treat!

any thoughts on why peter would need to put the pulsatilla integrifolia under cover in his climate?

[Maggi Young]

Cohan, where did you see that Peter puts it under cover? He doesn't, as far as I know.

[Ulla Hansson]

Peter has a Miakeya in the alpine house previously been shown in the figure. He has also set out many seedlings in the garden.
 I have only seen the alpine house in the summer, then it's roof but no walls, how it is in the winter I do not know. There are some really beautiful plants in it.

[Maren]

Maggi, thanks for the link. It's not responding at present so I'll try it later.

Cohan, where did you see that Peter puts it under cover? He doesn't, as far as I know.

i was assuming it was inside the structure seen above..
but from ulla's comments above, i guess its just for comparison with those growing completely outside?

[Maggi Young]

Sorry Cohan, I was missing that point! Yes, I see now what  you meant.... but, as you say, it's just to have a comparison, I think. It may be to see if the one under cover has less trouble with aborting buds.... the plant is seemingly prone to that.

I made a hyper tufa crevice garden in my Alpine House a few years back. The method was featured in the AGS Bulletin.
