watering
Water Wallflower plants deeply once per week in the early morning or late evening when the sun is not too strong. Make sure the soil is kept evenly moist, but not wet or soggy, to help promote healthier growth. If rainfall is lacking or there are periods of extended drought, water more frequently. When watering, take care to avoid getting water on the flowers or foliage, as this can still cause sunburn. If needed, use a soaker hose or drip irrigation system to ensure even and consistent watering.
sunlight
Wallflower (Erysimum linifolium 'Balcherissam' CHEERS SUN-KISSED AMETHYST) thrives in full sun, meaning it should receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. It prefers hot, dry climates and can tolerate a wide range of soils. This plant species is very drought-tolerant and can tolerate dry soil conditions for extended periods of time, however, it does need regular watering in order to stay healthy. When watering, it is best to water deeply and infrequently, taking care to avoid overwatering and remaining mindful of its drought-tolerance.
pruning
For the wallflower (Erysimum linifolium 'Balcherissam' CHEERS SUN-KISSED AMETHYST) plant, the best time to prune is in late winter or early spring. Pruning back the hardy perennial is a good way to encourage new, bushy and vigorous growth in the following season. Start by deadheading the flowers and then use sharp, clean pruners to cut back the stems to about 6–12 inches from their original growth. Doing this helps reduce the risk of disease and encourage more blooms to form. Additionally, you can lightly cut back the stems to the ground in late summer or early fall if the plant has become overly large or unruly.
