identity of plant
« on: March 27, 2007, 20:55:35 »
any idea what this lovely small flowered plant is? I'd like to get it for a shady part and was wondering if it would be suitable.

Looks like a mossy saxifrage. If so then they will grow in light shade, but not too dark.
Gardening is the great leveller.

Yeah, it's a saxifrage. Lovely little thing - but you'd be mad to grow it in shade. It really wants as much sun as it can get..
