PLANTING and AFTERCARE GUIDE
Best Planting Time
The best time to plant Erysimum ‘Rysi Copper’ is in spring when the soil begins to warm, helping the roots establish ahead of flowering. Alternatively, early autumn planting works equally well, giving your Erysimum time to settle before its next growth cycle.
Site Selection
Sunlight: Choose a position in full sun for the strongest flowering performance. Because Erysimum ‘Rysi Copper’ thrives in bright, open conditions, a sunny location will enhance its vibrant colours and sweet scent.
Soil: Plant in free-draining soil to prevent excess moisture around the roots. Incorporating grit or compost improves overall soil structure and provides ideal growing conditions.
Planting Instructions
Prepare the Hole
Begin by digging a hole twice the width of the root ball. This gives the plant ample space for strong root development.
Soil Preparation
Next, improve drainage by mixing organic matter or coarse grit into the soil.
Planting
Then position the plant so the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil. After placing it, gently backfill and firm into position to stabilise Erysimum ‘Rysi Copper’.
Watering After Planting
Finally, water thoroughly to settle the soil. Once established, Erysimum prefers moderate moisture and tolerates short dry periods well.
Watering Requirements
Water occasionally during extended dry spells, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. During its natural dormant period, reduce watering to avoid overly damp conditions and maintain the health.
Feeding
Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to encourage fresh growth and strong flowering. Additionally, a light midsummer feed helps maintain its exceptional flowering performance.
Pruning
Deadhead routinely to prolong the blooming season and keep the plant looking tidy. After flowering peaks, lightly trim Erysimum ‘Rysi Copper’ to encourage compact new growth and prevent the plant from becoming leggy.
Mulching
In spring, apply a thin mulch layer to help conserve moisture and suppress weeds. However, keep mulch away from the crown of the plant. In winter, a light mulch helps protect the roots while maintaining the free-draining soil Erysimum prefers.
Final Tips
Erysimum ‘Rysi Copper’ is a hardy, low-maintenance perennial that produces a continuous display of bright, fragrant flowers from March to October. With its compact form, colourful blooms, and love of sunny, free-draining conditions, Rysi Copper is a superb addition to gardens seeking long-lasting interest, vibrant colour, and delightful fragrance.
