Conservation Scheme information for Erysimum ‘Bowles’s Yellow’
- ID: P193
- Introduced: 2015
- By: Isle of Wight Group
- Reason: Interesting association with E.A.Bowles. Less well-known than Erysimum ‘Bowles’s Mauve’
- Verified by: Purchased from Cotswold Garden Flowers
- Description: Short-lived evergreen perennial.
- Dimensions: 25cm x 25cm
- Flowers: Bright, butter-yellow cruciform flowers opening from red-tinged buds.
