If you are looking for evergreen shrubs then check out the dwarf conifers such as weeping hemlock or spruce but if you had flowers in mind then candytuft or Iberis, creeping phlox and basket of Gold are the best bloomers for rock gardens. You can also grow heathers and they stay low and compact and love the good drainage on top of a rockery. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
