My 2 cents worth... If rock garden purists wish to stick to purely alpine plants, that is certainly fine. If some gardeners have a less restrictive definition and post accordingly, that is fine too. It seems to me that the culture and climate at ATP is generally one of acceptance and encouragement, which is the reason I enjoy and participate in this site. We gardeners are at all different levels and abilities and are here to help one another and share our love of gardening. I hope it stays that way. And Dirt, your gardens are so extraordinarily beautiful that I think you have earned the right to label them in any way you see fit.
