Wall Gardening: Varieties

Arabis alpina, Rock-Cress. Arabis blooms in April, its flowers are white and the plant is most desirable for rock work. It is hardy and will thrive in poor soil but requires ample sunshine. Arabis is easily propagated by seeds sown during the summer or by root divisions best made immediately after bloom, owing to its early flowering period.
