Erysimum Rysi Moon Plug Plant - Perennial Wallflower

Erysimum or 'Rysi Moon' shrubby wallflower derived from cuttings, is the only variety capable of offering you this ivory white colour of rare elegance! Ideal for spring decoration on terraces, balconies, and window sills in a timeless style.

Also known as "false wallflower", Erysimum 'Rysi Moon'  forms a compact subshrub covered with narrow and evergreen foliage in a beautiful dark green colour, a little taller than wide, about 30cm (11.8in) in height. Its flowering, typical of wallflowers, is very slightly scented and stands out for its unique colour in this plant family: cream white when opening, its flowers lighten the next day to take on a beautiful ivory shade. Sterile, its numerous floral spikes do not bear seeds and constantly lengthen with new flowers, over a period from March to June. Perfectly hardy, its ancestors grow in the mountains and often on rocky slopes, so 'Rysi Moon' shrubby wallflower loves a well-drained soil, even rocky, and will thrive in rockeries, exposed to full sun. Short-lived perennial, it appreciates a light pruning at the end of June or beginning of July to help it rest and regenerate for the following spring.

Grown as a biennial, the 'Rysi Moon' wallflower is best enjoyed in pots and containers , but also in seasonal flowerbeds, accompanied, for example, by tulip bulbs and forget-me-nots, pansies, primroses, foxgloves, etc... as city gardeners do. Its slightly upright habit will bring height to your compositions, while its pure and neutral colour will allow all associations, regardless of the style of your plantings.
