Cheiranthus cheiri 'Scarlet Emperor'
- Product number: 581400
- Origin: Europe
- Latin: Cheiranthus cheiri, or also Erysimum cheiri
Compact, warm-red wallflower (height 30 cm). The plant branches beautifully into a full bush, and occasional topping further stimulates this. Such a velvety-sweet scent is only found in wallflowers!
Wallflowers owe their name to their spontaneous germination on crumbling (demolition) walls and/or their frequent planting at the base of a sunny wall. They love sun and, above all, not too much moisture! In such a spot, they self-seed; pruning old plants in time and mounding a little soil around them often encourages regrowth.
