If you love the look of a rockery, but don't have enough space to build one in your small yard or balcony, have you ever thought of creating one in a container?
There is something utterly absorbing about collections of sempervivums, succulents and other miniature alpines, surrounded by iridescent clusters of gravel. You can really admire the incredible detail and intricacies of these rock garden plants when seen up close. I made a miniature rock garden with my children last summer, and as well as being a super easy project to do with kids, they were fascinated with the look and feel of these intriguing plants.
