Erysimum POEM™ Pastel


Hybrid Wallflower

USDA Zone: 8-9

Plant number: 1.206.380


This is a new series of Wallflower that was specifically created by crossing many different species to give better plants, with more colours and longer flowering. These hybrid varieties bloom non-stop for months. The POEM™ series provides plants that are bushy in habit with masses of reliable color early in the season. This selection produces masses of fragrant flower spikes that open soft yellow and darken to lavender as they mature. Plants are naturally compact and mounding, but pruning back by half after flowering is wise to prevent them from getting leggy. Wonderful for mixed borders, all containers and rock gardens. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
