ON THIS PLANT

Arabis allionii is a species of flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae, native to the mountains of central and southern Europe and southern Turkey. The Royal Horticultural Society lists it as a garden plant for attracting pollinators, but gives its common name as "Siberian wallflower", suggesting that they have it confused with Erysimum × marshallii.

Planted outdoors it needs only minimal watering, and larger specimens typically do not require pruning. Smaller specimens, however, should be pruned after they have bloomed. Arabis allioniit is suitable for anyone who has an outdoor area, such as a garden or a deck, and does not demand a lot of care experience.
