From delicate flowering perennials to tough evergreen shrubs, there's something for every horticultural enthusiast.

Hebe Emerald Gem

Hebe Emerald Gem is a popular compact shrub, ideal for alpine gardens. With its dense, emerald-green foliage and tolerance for harsh conditions, it adds texture and colour all year round. Hebe is low-maintenance and perfect for edging paths or planting among rocks.

Perovskia atriplicifolia (Perovskia plant)

Silver foliage and tall, airy blooms make Perovskia atriplicifolia (Perovskia plant) a standout in any alpine border. This perennial thrives in dry, sunny spots and practically looks after itself, attracting bees and other pollinators. It's a perfect companion for other alpine plants due to its drought tolerance.

Myosotis colensoi (NZ Alpine Forget-Me-Not)

For a touch of blue among your rocks and crevices, consider Myosotis colensoi (NZ Alpine Forget-Me-Not). This native alpine perennial boasts charming sky-blue flowers in spring and summer, creating a delicate meadow effect within your garden. It's a great groundcover and works well planted in clusters.

Coprosma prostrata

If you're looking for alpine groundcovers, Coprosma prostrata is a superb choice. Its dense, mat-forming habit makes it perfect for stabilising slopes or filling gaps between stones. With glossy foliage and an ability to thrive in exposed sites, this New Zealand native is both practical and attractive.

Muehlenbeckia complexa (Pohuehue)

Another excellent groundcover is Muehlenbeckia complexa (Pohuehue). Its intertwining, wiry stems and small, rounded leaves form a beautiful carpet in alpine gardens. Pohuehue adapts well to dry, rocky soils and helps suppress weeds, creating a lush yet low-maintenance landscape.

Choosing Alpine Plants for Your Garden

When selecting alpine plants for sale, consider your garden’s microclimate. Sunny, sheltered areas are ideal, but many alpine species tolerate partial shade. Look for plants with good drought and frost tolerance, and ensure soils drain well to mimic their mountain habitat.
