A colourful and compact wallflower that brings months of interest to borders and containers. This evergreen perennial forms neat mounds of slender, dark green foliage topped with clusters of richly scented blooms. The flowers open in shades of warm orange and mellow into pink, purple and burgundy tones as they mature, creating a constantly changing display from spring through late summer.
Ideal for sunny, well-drained spots, it pairs beautifully with tulips and other spring bulbs. Though often short-lived, Erysimum ‘Winter Sorbet’ is easy to grow, long-flowering, and perfect for adding vibrant, shifting colour to the garden.

Growing Erysimum in well-drained soil/growing medium is advised. Where frosts are severe, provide horticultural fleece protection and mulch with a thick layer of well-rotted organic matter to insulate the roots against the cold. Trimming after flowering will help prevent the plant from becoming leggy.
