Arenaria biflora (Europe). 
Treat like Arenaria rosani. 
Arenaria grandiflora (France). 
Treat like Arenaria montana. 
Arenaria Huteri (Tyrol). 
A most charming little Alpine, growing freely 
when given a south-west aspect on the level part of 
the rock-garden in sandy loam. A top-dressing of 
sand and leaf-mould twice a year is of great benefit, 
as it enables the young shoots to root freely. 
Arenaria longifolia (Siberia). 
This Arenaria resembles a fine grass, and requires 
a rather shaded position on the dry side of the bog- 
garden. It is almost evergreen, and looks well when 
out of flower. 
Arenaria montana (France and Spain). 
Plant in a sunny, well-drained position on a 
slope where it can hang over a rock, facing east, 
south-east, or south-west, in equal parts of poor 
loam and either limestone or sandstone grit, leaving 
sufficient depth for the tap-root. When once the 
plant has become well-established it should be cut 
well back each year after flowering, in the month of 
August. 
Arenaria rosani (S. Europe). 
This plant requires a sunny position in the 
crevices of rockwork or on a dry bank, in light, 
sandy, gritty soil. The compost should be made as 
poor as possible, in order not to encourage a growth
