There’s nothing shy about these wallflowers! ERYSIMUM Glow™ series
Posted by John Friel on Jan 6th 2021
Their Latin name changed from Cheiranthus to Erysimum years ago, but gardeners still call them “wallflower.” By any name, they’ve adorned our borders for decades.
The Glow™ series updates the genus with its compact, ground-hugging shrubby habit and extended bloom time. Once established, they like their soil on the dry side – perfect for water-conscious areas and for reduced maintenance everywhere.
They’re brilliant at lighting up containers, too, alone or in combination. And they play well with Illuminating (Pantone 13-0647), the cheerful yellow hue that’s one of two 2021 Color of the Year choices.
Get a load of their glowing honey-scented flowers in a range of gold/citrus hues:
and ‘Orange’.
They keep a low profile (just 6 – 8”), but these wallflowers are ready to strut their stuff. Add them to your dance card for 2021, and get your Glow™ on with fast-finishing 72s from Emerald Coast Growers – the easy choice!
