Alpines are classified as any plant that grows naturally above the tree line at high elevations (too high for trees to grow) in alpine regions. The UK has several alpine environments, mostly in the Scottish highlands, so you can buy many rockery plants that grow naturally in our climate.

Most alpines are compact plants that are used to create rock gardens. Many of them are herbaceous perennials, with thick woody stems and foliage that lasts all year around. They are notoriously hardy and love to grow in rocky, free-draining soil that other plants wouldn't be able to handle.
