Erysimum Bowles Mauve

Common Name: Bowles Mauve Wallflower

Description:
Erysimum ‘Bowles Mauve’ is a long-flowering, evergreen perennial prized for its abundant spikes of mauve-purple flowers that bloom almost year-round, with peak flowering from spring through autumn. Its narrow, grey-green foliage forms a neat, bushy mound, providing excellent contrast in garden beds, borders, and pots. ‘Bowles Mauve’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, demonstrating excellent drought tolerance once established. It attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making it a fantastic addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. Regular deadheading encourages prolonged blooming, and light pruning helps maintain a compact shape.
