Erysimum Winter Orchid ('Innerywinorch') (PBR)
perennial wallflower
Compact mounds of slender, evergreen foliage are topped with masses of fragrant flowers, which change colour from burnt orange to pinkish-purple as they age. This creates a very pretty and colourful effect as the season progresses.
How to care for Erysimum Winter Orchid ('Innerywinorch') (PBR):
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.
