This is the first plant to flower in my new crevice garden, other than a couple which were planted in flower. Morisia monanthes.
Wow! And so many buds still forming. Going to be a cushion of sunshine yellow flowers. So the crevice garden is proving a success?

This is the Crevice garden, virtually fully planted now. Would you believe it? Over 60 plants plus a few tiny bulbs and £100 in cost. so far.
reckon they should borrow your alpine house for GW, instead of theirs, Palustris!
It does look really good! Is your alpine house fully glazed? Will the time come when the plants all knit together, or are they so well spaced that it would take donkeys before they sprawled that much?
At present it is fully glazed, but within a month almost all the glass at the staging level will be removed, as will be the shade netting which is over the roof. (Not for shade, but to keep the glass from flying too far when blown off in gales).
Almost all of the plants are cushion types (buns to many) and they should slowly (if they live) get bigger, but they will take a long time to get massive. I have added a few 'runners' which should wander along their crevice. There is still room for a few more plants, but that is the major planting.
Now of course I have to deal with the other side of the house. I have begun work on that, but the cold weather has delayed it for a while.
They should have a green envy man...its terrific... ;D
