SAXIFRAGA. Rockfoil. 
(Saxifragaceae, Saxifraga Family) 
SILVER or ENCRUSTED SECTION 
These encrusted Saxifrages are among the most 
beautiful of all rock plants. They have thick, stiff, 
leathery leaves in tight evergreen rosettes, heavily 
coated with white lime on the edge of the leaves. It 
is a real delight to see a well grown colony of these 
lovely Alpines nestled in a fissure of a rock, where 
they look as though a Master Sculptor had cut them 
from the Mother Element. All the species in this group 
have sturdy, erect flower stalks of varying heights, with 
flowers in heads or in clusters along the stem, 

Saxifraga macnabiana
