Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Rock-Garden, Vol. 2 Nertera. Depressa. Is a minute half-hardy New Zealand mat of creeping bright-green foliage in spreading cushions, all over which, after the unnoticeable flowers, develop quantities of glowing terra-cotta and scarlet balls of fruit like round comfits. It will be happy out of doors in a sheltered shady corner of the rock-work, in damp sandy loam and will even bear our winters, though pieces should always be dug Off and potted up in autumn for safety's sake.
