Grown from seed originally, these rock sunrises are all that are left of my alpine lawn, which is being encroached by my Irises.

I agree with Dd, I have a yellow and orange one. Quick question Siris, mine have gone a bit woody in the middle plus I don't trim them in case I kill them, any ideas on their care, thanks

I think if you cut into the old wood you might kill them. I try to trim when young if I remember or alternately take seed or pin down a stem to make a new plant.

Thanks Siris. I'm wary about cutting into old wood, I've lost Cytisus by doing that. I never thought of looking for seed. Hmmm I will layer some too and see what happens, thank you

See who else is growing Helianthemum nummularium (Common Rockrose).
See who else has plants in genus Helianthemum.
