Scientific Name
Erysimum cheiri 'Sugar Rush Garden Mix'

Common Name
Wallflower

Origin
Cultivated variety; Erysimum linifolium is native to southwestern Europe.

Pruning Tips
Deadhead regularly to encourage continuous flowering. Lightly trim back in late summer to maintain a compact shape and promote fresh growth. Avoid cutting into old woody stems, as this can reduce vigour.

Wildlife Value
A valuable nectar source for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, particularly in early spring when food sources are scarce.

Positioning
Prefers full sun but will tolerate light shade. Ideal for borders, gravel gardens, and rockeries, as well as patio containers.

Water
Drought tolerant once established, but water regularly in prolonged dry spells. Avoid waterlogging, as excess moisture can lead to root rot.

Soil
Thrives in well-draining, moderately fertile soil. Prefers neutral to alkaline conditions but adapts well to most garden soils.

Food
Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring to support healthy flowering. Avoid excessive feeding, as rich soil can reduce flower production.

Pet-safe
Mildly toxic if ingested, so keep out of reach of pets and children.

Sprouts Top Tips
For the best display, plant in groups and pair with other sun-loving perennials like salvias and lavender to create a vibrant, pollinator-friendly border.
