Alpinthum

Alpinthum – a harmonious arrangement of rocks, trees, shrubs and terrain placed on a particular surface for horticultural arrangement. The first registered alpinthums date from 1880. On the British islands, and later they were raised in Switzerland and other European countries. In Macedonia, their boot is from a newer date (last decades of XX c.). It is usual to rise on steep surfaces with a fall of 100 -400. The most appropriate is the rocks to originate from the proximity of the location of the alpinetum, but it is not a strict rule. When choosing, the rocks are patted, pavely, made of time, hollow, covered with lichen and moss, without sharp edges and variable in size. The seed material should be a dwarf. The use of such compact material allows for the creation of successful compositions on small surfaces. Bl. S.
