Gave the perennial wallflowers a haircut today as they had mostly just barren seed pods rather than flowers

One plant I could not do without is Erysimum "Red Jep" - my first wallflower, which pretty much flowered all year since I bought it Spring 2019, not sure if this is normal for wallflowers. I'm definately saving the seed this year to ensure a real carpet of them, as well as to give to friends and neighboors. Let me know a plant you couldn't do without in the comments!

I feel the same about my Erysimum Bowles Mauve! I had Red Jep too but it didn't survive, must replace it. My other 'must haves' are Dicentra spectabilis and pretty much any hardy geraniums. Oh, and alliums!

Perennial Wallflowers are great! I have a few and they grow so easily from cuttings, definitely recommend cuttings over seed as its a guaranteed replica of the parent plant 🌿 💖 geranium 'rozanne' is one of my plants has earned its place in my top 5! Flowers all summer long 💜

They look great, hope my Bowles Mauve grow this well 😀 I couldn't do without Cranesbill - they look after themselves really 🌸
