Rock Gardens in the Jurassic Region: Utilizing Natural Limestone
Harness limestone outcrops and slopes in Nawojowa Góra and surrounding hills. Rock plants, drainage, and dry-stack stone walls.
Plots across the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland feature distinctive terrain slopes and limestone bedrock. Rather than fighting natural contours, incorporate them into a spectacular rock garden.
Dry stone retaining walls
On steep slopes, dry-stacked stone walls from local limestone create functional planting terraces. Stones are tilted slightly back into the slope, backfilled with gravel-rich soil.
Selecting drought-tolerant rockery plants
Jurassic rock gardens provide an ideal setting for sun-loving, drought-resilient perennials like sedums, sempervivums, wild thymes, English lavender, and woodland sage.
