I have now reached the alpine department this time of year is the slow season so we have been tending to the display house as well as the rest of the plants that make up the collections. Each morning we go into display and tidy the plants and remove any that have gone over and replace them with ones that are coming on. When you replace a plant it must be properly plunged into the sand of display so just the lip of the pot is showing this insulates the plants as well as making the display look nice. After the display is looking pristine then it is time to care to the plants that are currently not on display. A lot of work goes into keeping the plants looking at their best so they are ready to be put on display. Sunday going into Monday we got snow yes snow which accumulated to a couple of inches. The garden looked so gorgeous. So Monday morning was spent removing snow which reminded me a lot of home! The garden staff was clearing paths to get it ready for the garden visitors.
