Rock garden plants are commonly grown in naturalistic gardens, usually around and among rocks. They tend to be compact in size, many have their origin in the mountain regions of the world, and they are often quite winter hardy. The larger scale rock garden plants included here are grown in the open rock gardens, on hillsides, or draping over rock walls.
