Crevice Gardens
Crevice gardens are a historical novelty to grow mountain plants that have come in to wider use as features in xeric gardens, and ecological alternatives to retaining walls or the disposal of waste concrete. They evoke the spirit of earth’s rocky places, elevating small plants and needing minimal if skilled maintenance.
