Wallflowers stand up to high winds
 

Wallflowers, Erysimum, were once again the stars for the third week in October.  Despite a week when high winds and heavy rain really took its toll on plant sales, Erysimum sales increased by 4.5% week on week to be the only Top 10 plant genus that grew sales.

  • Amaryllis in the green showed signs of good early Christmas plant sales.
  • Senecio were the highest new entry with the award-winning ‘Angel Wings’ amongst the genus sales.
  • Calocephalus, another silver foliage plant, saw a 134% increase to move up 20 places to No 17.
