• Water regularly during the first growing season to help plants establish; once settled, saxifrages are relatively drought-tolerant


• Avoid excessive moisture around the crown, especially in winter, as this can cause rot


• Trim back spent flower stems after blooming to keep plants tidy and encourage fresh foliage growth


• Divide congested clumps every few years in early autumn to maintain vigour
