Add vibrant colour, fragrance and pollinator-friendly charm to your garden with this beautiful Erysimum Trio Collection, featuring three outstanding perennial wallflowers chosen for their complementary shades and long flowering season.

This striking combination includes the rich, jewel-like tones of Erysimum Magenta, the warm glowing blend of sunset shades found in Erysimum Sunset, and the bright cheerful blooms of Erysimum Yellow. Together they create a stunning tapestry of colour that lights up borders from early spring into early summer.

Wallflowers are treasured cottage garden plants, loved not only for their vibrant colours but also for their delicate, sweet fragrance which drifts through the garden on warm days. Their nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators, making them a wonderful choice for wildlife-friendly planting.

Compact and easy to grow, Erysimum works beautifully at the front of borders, along pathways, in gravel gardens or planted in containers where their colourful display can be enjoyed up close. When planted together, this trio produces a harmonious blend of warm and vibrant tones that bring energy and life to any garden space.

Reliable, hardy and rewarding, this trio provides months of colour with minimal effort, making it a perfect choice for both experienced gardeners and beginners alike.

Planting Instructions

When to Plant:

Plant Erysimum (Wallflowers) in spring or autumn when the soil is workable. Avoid planting during periods of hard frost or into waterlogged soil.

Where to Plant:
Choose a sunny, well-drained position. Erysimum thrives in full sun but will tolerate light partial shade. They are perfect for cottage garden borders, gravel gardens, front of borders and containers.

How to Plant:

• Depth: Plant so the top of the rootball sits level with the soil surface.
• Spacing: Space plants about 30–40 cm (12–16 inches) apart.
• Soil Prep: Improve soil with garden compost. In heavier soils, add grit or sharp sand to aid drainage.

Watering:
Water well after planting and keep the soil lightly moist while plants establish. Once established, Erysimum is relatively drought tolerant, though watering during extended dry periods will help maintain flowering.

Aftercare Tips:

• Deadhead regularly to encourage more blooms.
• Lightly trim plants after flowering to keep them compact and encourage fresh growth.
• Apply a mulch of compost in spring to promote healthy growth.

Top Tip:
Plant this trio together for a beautiful display of magenta, sunset tones and bright yellow. The lightly scented flowers are highly attractive to bees and pollinators.
