SAXIFRAGA 
SAXIFRAGA—(Saxifragaceae). No rock garden is complete 
without a collection of these interesting and beautiful 
alpines. Their requirements are good drainage and a soil 
composed of leafmold, loam, a little well decayed cow 
manure and sand. All types and varieties require partial 
shade in the Eastern section of this country. They should 
receive a good top dressing of the above mentioned soil 
mixture in the spring and autumn, and a light covering of 
salt hay during the winter. 
EUAIZOONIA GROUP—(Encrusted Varieties). These form 
rosettes of narrow and spatulate shaped leaves, heavily en¬ 
crusted with lime in most cases, and are extremely orna¬ 
mental in the rock garden.
