Alpines & Rock Gardens

Where can I find alpine plant seeds?

I planted a little alpine garden this summer and now I'm hooked. I'm planning a much larger alpine garden for next year. I'd like to start some of the plants for the new garden from seed this winter but I can't seem to find a source for seeds locally or online. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

Check out NARGS.org (North American Rock Garden Society) or try the following:

It is easy to get hooked isn't it?

Thanks so much. I'm going to have so much fun deciding what to order!

I think I was hooked and already planning the next garden by the time the first garden was done.

Alplains seed and Jeletto are good too. Have you thought of joining NARGS or your local WI chapter? International seed exchange and good people in your local chapter who would be happy to meet and help you.
