The renowned Kew collection of alpines is now housed in a third and strikingly innovative Alpine House, which opened in March 2006 at the north end of the Rock Garden, which itself has its own fine collection of alpines and bulbs. Alpine houses allow alpines to be grown in places with significantly different conditions from those they would experience in their native habitats. In the wild, alpines spend the winter dormant, dry and protected from the desiccating effect of cold winds by a blanket of snow.
