December 28, 2007, Newsletter Issue #170: Ideal location
Tip of the Week
The ideal location for a rock garden is a gentle slope protected from strong winds. A sunny site is best for most plants, but dappled sunshine coming through a tree several yards away is acceptable and can be beneficial during hot summer days. Do not build a rock garden under trees that cast heavy shade unless you plan to grow only woodland plants, although too much shade can be reduced by cutting off lower branches and thinning upper growth. A flat site can be made suitable if adequately drained.
