PLANT OF THE WEEK

ERYSIMUM ‘JUMBO ORANGE’

THIS is a lovely new introduction from Plant World Seeds, a small family firm in Devon.

Every year its catalogue is a delightful collection of unusual seeds and this flamboyant wallflower caught my eye. They have developed a perennial variety with fragrant bright orange flowers which open in late winter. Also Dahlia Autumn Dazzlers are a new generation of tall elegant dahlias hybridized at Plant World. These are hardy single forms, with the occasional dark leaf specimen, that will flower in a sunny spot from late summer until first frost.
