I am kind of "expert" of Norw mountain flowers. Now, at my old ages (Iôm 56), I should like grow some of the nice alpine flowers in a small alpine garden. Not more than 5-8 sq meters.

I plan to use second hand red brick stones. Making a narrow ellipse of these bricks, filling inside with gravel.

I plan to have 3 - 4 levels inside this ellipse

--

how do I make these levels?

Just stacking the bricks high enough

-- or should I use something "heavier"?

I have been to Kew /Davies alpine garden. That is what I want in miniature.

PS

Oh yes - I know Koenigia islandica. I guess it is hard to grow at home :-)
