can any members help by suggesting good alpines for seep zones? i was told that campanula excisa is a good one to consider!

I can suggest these:
I can suggest these (some are really big though):
Arabis alpina Chrysosplenium davidii Chrysosplenium macrophyllum
Parnassia palustris Pinguicula vulgaris Pedicularis oederi
Ranunculus glacialis Salix reticulata Saxifraga aizoides
So, constantly wet conditions? From reading Graham NIcholl's Dwarf Campanula and Associated Genera, it does seem that Campanula excisa can be a bit of a tricky one that does prefer constant moisture... (which doesn't bode well for my potful of seedlings.) Interesting that the leaves die off before flowering.
What I see growing in seeps in the mountains here are Saxifraga lyallii, Romanzoffia sitchensis, some of the small saxifrages like Saxifraga caespitosa, S. aizoides...
Hmm, will have to think about this. I hope other members will chip in!
