Hi all,

Sorry in advance for my daft question lol. It's a long time since l had saxifrages but l bought some at the weekend, they are nice clump and have a handful of flowers but they are looking brown underneath the greenery towards the soil.

I really can't remember if this means they're normal or dying, any advice?


Happy moneysaving all.

    I got talking to someone who was delivering saxifrages at a garden centre and it turned out that he knew all about them because he grew them at his nursery and sold them to garden centres.

    The gist of his advice was that the biggest problem with them is over-watering which some garden centres tend to do, and they thrived on near neglect.

    I have yet to test his advice :D
