very pretty plant, I will have to have a go at rock gardening, the closest Ive got is with an old well we have in our front garden which has a rustic structure built up round it with many gaps, I planted house leeks and snow-in-summer and it looks pretty in full bloom. I will have to read up on rock gardening, its a new area of discovery for me, your photos are an inspiration. I will take a photo of our well when its in bloom.

Lovely plant and photo. I used to grow several saxifragii on my nursery but one year I had a plague of vine weevils and they decimated the lot. They seem to have strong preferences for certain plants. They also love astilbes which is a great shame because I use to grow many of those. I haven't seem a vine weevil on my nursery for several years as they don't seem to like the plants I grow nowadays.
