Saxifraga paniculata ex Austria
Currently this plant is unavailable. However, we may have it in the future, so please if you wish to be added to a wish list.

This excellent group of rock garden plants is known as the section Ligulatae, or more commonly as the silver or encrusted saxifrages, in recognition of the deposits of lime that line the leaves. They all have rosettes, large or small depending on the variety, and have relatively large panicles of flowers, usually white. They come from rocky places in the mountains, some on limestone and some on acid rocks.

Saxifraga paniculata ex Austria makes tight clumps of rosettes, the leaves short, rounded and encrusted with lime. The clusters of white flowers are on dark red stems. This is a selection, originating in Austria.
