Well, May must have been the driest May on record in Coolwater. The soil in the alpine troughs had turned to a powdery dust but rain, like the cavalry, came at the end of the month just in the nick of time. Rock Roses around the garden (a few pictured above) are having the most floriferous display this year.
Above, Saxifraga canis dalmatica and below, a Globularia in the alpine troughs.
