The Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow, also known as wallflower, is a stunning plant that can add a pop of color to any garden or landscape. Its unique features and characteristics make it a popular choice among garden enthusiasts.

One notable attribute of the Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow is its spreaded leaf arrangement. This means that the leaves are nicely spaced out, giving the plant a fuller and more attractive appearance. The leaves themselves have a lanceolate shape, meaning they are long and narrow with pointed ends. The main color of the leaves is a dark green, which provides a beautiful contrast to the vibrant yellow flowers.

Speaking of flowers, the Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow produces single, medium-sized blooms with a diameter of 2 to 2.5 cm. The flower color is a lovely shade of yellow, specifically a medium yellow-008B. These flowers are unicolored, which means that the entire flower is the same color without any distinct patterns or markings. While the flowers may not have a scent, their vibrant color more than makes up for it.

The Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow is a relatively compact plant, with a height ranging from 20 to 30 cm. It has an erect growth type, meaning that the stems and leaves stand upright. This makes it an ideal choice for borders, containers, or even as a focal point in a rock garden. Its reasonable winter hardness, suitable for USDA-zone 7, means that it is capable of withstanding colder temperatures and can be enjoyed year-round.

One of the most attractive features of the Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow is its long flowering period. It blooms from April to September, with peak flowering months being June, July, and August. The flowers are densely arranged in raceme-like clusters, creating a striking visual display. The inflorescence itself has a diameter of 1 to 2 cm, which further adds to the plant's overall appeal.

In conclusion, the Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow is a must-have plant for any garden enthusiast looking to add a splash of color and beauty to their outdoor space. With its spreaded leaf arrangement, lanceolate dark green leaves, and unicolored medium yellow flowers, this wallflower is a real showstopper. Its compact size, reasonable winter hardness, and extended blooming period make it a versatile and low-maintenance choice for any garden. Whether planted in borders, containers, or rock gardens, the Erysimum Leya Lemon Glow is sure to be a standout addition to any landscape.
