Saxifrages beginning with I
How to read the catalog
In general....Saxifrages are not sun and summer warmth lovers, so never grow them south facing in the rock garden. Best is some morning and evening sun, with enough shade between 11.00-16.00. Some need a more cool and shady position. But always with enough daylight. The roots may never dry out or stay too wet. You cannot wring out the soil, but you can water the Saxes when needed. Some need more humus rich soil, and moist staying roots, especially in summer. So in general, very well drained poor soil is the best. Saxes do NOT need extra feeding or fertilizers, they get there nutrition out of the sand, grit, stone.
