More tightly packed and condensed than many, Erysimum linifolium ‘Erysistible Magenta’ brings striking blooms from April to September each year. Dramatic shades of pink, purple and orange will bring a kaleidoscope of open and gently scented flowers – great for borders, gravel gardens and containers as well as perfect cut for a vase. You cannot help but admire these beauties and inhale the honey-like perfume, which has just a hint of violets. As they are more compact, plants will not become leggy, as many Erysimum do – just trim back at the end of the season to keep them looking their best over winter as foliage is retained all year. Erysimum linifolium ‘Erysistible Magenta’ prefers well-drained, fertile soil of any kind except heavy clay. Position in full sun or partial shade with any aspect other than north facing for best results. A hardy (H5) evergreen perennial which grows to a height of 50cm with a spread of 40cm.
