A rockgarden in late summer

(1/2) > >>

ruweiss:
Last week a friend invited me to visit his garden and I had a pleasant afternoon in
this paradise. In spite of the high temperatures everything was in an optimal shape.

ruweiss:
More plants:

Maggi Young:
Your friend has a lovely garden, Rudi. almost as good as yours! 

Yann:
Very nice hill, it looks very natural

Leucogenes:
I too would like to express my enthusiasm. Your friend's rock garden is par excellance.

However, I still have one small question... Does the enchanting Helichrysum sibthorpii stand outside all year round without protection from rain and snow? Or is it protected? I ask because I am thinking of integrating my two small specimens into the rock garden. This species seems to like a regular dose of water (?) At least the plants in my two pots look a bit sad when I come home on Fridays...after watering they recover very quickly though. So I suspect they are better off outdoors and should perhaps only be protected from too much wetness and snow in winter.

I would be grateful for any advice.

Cheers
Thomas
