nN2 Alpine Plants. 
again in October, the plant should be top-dressed 
with gritty sandstone and pressed firmly into place. 
Schizocodon soldanelloides (Mts. of Japan). 
A plant with poor constitution. Plant in shade 
on the flat in equal parts of peat and leaf-mould with 
a little loam added, and, if possible, a little chopped 
sphagnum. After planting, surface around the plant 
with white sand, and give a good watering. It is 
most essential to top-dress several times a year. 
Schizostylis coccinea (S. Africa). 
Valuable as supplying bright red flowers late in 
the year. Plant 2in. deep on a dry, sunny bank, 
facing south, in equal parts of fibrous loam and grit. 
This plant does well and looks well when under- 
planted among such shrubs as Genista or Cistus. 
After flowering the foliage may be removed. 
Sedum brevifolium and b. major (Western Mediterranean 
Region). 
These require special culture, being of smaller 
growth than many other of the Sedums. They 
are suitable for the south side of a rockery on 
little ledges or crevices, where they will be fairly 
dry in winter and sheltered from north and east 
winds, in a compost of equal parts of gritty loam 
and sand. 
Sedum cyaneum (Eastern Siberia). 
Treat like Sedum brevifolium. 
Sedum farinosum (Madeira). 
Treat like Sedum brevifolium.
