So nice to see flowers in the nursery. A lady remarked that some very short flowers looked like wall flowers, and she read the name Erysimum. I told her that they were wall-flowers. She said she hated complicated names and asked why people couldn't leave the name alone and just call it wallflowers. I could see her point as the plants were short and the colours of the petals display different colours .. quite unlike the usual wallflowers we see.

I get totally flummoxed by all the latin names.....I prefer the good old common ones......life is complicated enough!

My Mum use to have Erysimum Bowles Mauve...lovely

Yes, but these wall flowers are very short and on one stem, it has a few flowers and all the petals showed different colours. Latin names are so long and difficult to pronounce .. Way to allow some snobs to show their superiority...
