A joyful and tirelessly flowering perennial that lives up to its name by bringing a festive, multi-coloured display to the spring and early summer garden.
The charm of this variety lies in its mutable colouring; the fragrant flower spikes open in warm shades of brick-red and orange before gradually maturing to a soft purple-pink. Because the plant produces new buds continuously while the older ones fade, the result is a delightful two-tone effect that covers the grey-green foliage in a haze of sunset hues.
Growing to a neat, bushy size of around 40–60cm, it's an ideal candidate for rockeries, the top of a dry stone wall, or a sunny patio pot where its sweet scent can be enjoyed. It is a magnet for early butterflies and bees, thriving in poor, dry, or alkaline soils where richer plants might struggle.
Barnsdale tip: Wallflowers can become woody and leggy if left to their own devices. To keep your plant compact and bushy, trim it back lightly with shears immediately after the main flowering flush has finished in summer but take care not to cut back into the old, hard wood, as it may not regenerate.
April-June flowering. Evergreen sub-shrub. Best in a sunny and well-drained position but will take some semi-shade. Height & spread: 60cm x 40cm (24" x 16").
