This variety of Erysimum blooms during late winter and spring. The pale purple flowers are highly scented and make a great nectar source for early pollinating insects.
Once they have put on a good amount of shrubby growth, after flowering it is advisable to prune reasonably hard to maintain a good shape. They like a fertile soil and a sunny site.
