Planning on making a large rock garden in the spring, can you give me some pointers and info? Remember zone 4.

Thanks Bill, have you ever used any kind of shrub in your rock gardens? I already made a small one this fall but I did it all with bulbs. Hopefully they will take and multiply. I have unlimited access to rock from our local crush rock quarry.

I have a few minature shrubs in my rock garden. All different types of evergreens and a Tom Thumb cotoneaster.

I really like the look of minature shrubs.

The Tom Thumb was from a local generic nursery. We have a couple nongeneric nurseries in town that have really neat, different and wide selection of plants.

I consider Lowe`s, Franks, the big chains, generic nurseries and the small mom and pop ones nongeneric.

Siskiyou Rare Plant Nursey has a mail order and a very nice selection of plants.
