This plant is suitable only for lovers of a “real rock garden,” as it is rather fussy about care, location and soil type. Requires a slightly shaded spot and a moderately nutrient-rich soil. In winter, take measures to keep the soil fairly dry. In addition, the soil should be lime-free and stony (work lime-free gravel through the soil). Some drought is well tolerated. Little or no proliferation and combines well with other plants.
