The Erysimum Collection



Cultivation

L K Elmhirst prefers:
  • Full sun
  • Well-drained soil, neutral to alkaline
  • Shelter from wind
  • A good clipping after flowering
  • Propagate by summer or autumn cuttings


    Special notes:

    Unlike most erysimums, we have found that L. K. Elmhirst will shoot quite readily from 'old' wood. If you have one that loses its leaves over winter and looks dead, it is probably worth leaving well into the spring to see if it regenerates.
