I found another one so I planted it next to its friend! They are surrounded by pebbles to keep them safe.

That's a good reason for trying to keep Henry's paws away from them! They are the tiniest plants I have in the garden.

He WILL take a short cut across my scree bed! I've tried little fences but he just jumps over them.

Could be a different sort, Amy. The first plant has been in flower for some weeks.

I love gentians but have never grown them successfully. The colour is beautiful.

I tried a different species with larger flowers in my alpine trough - every time a flower opens, the birds rip it to pieces. :-(

Is it the sparrows?

No idea, but I guess so! I wish they'd leave me just ONE flower, though!
