Matthiola 'White Wonder Improved'

Good Qualities

Very nice white with green center, very sturdy and tall stems, excellent cluster of flowers; Very uniform, foliage clean looking, succession flowered in short window; Great fragrance, nice color; Beautiful in spring and early summer; Lovely fragrance, clean white, nice length, a few singles.

Problems

Not super strong stems; Flowers crinkled and leaves curled, plants appear to be diseased–not attractive; Planted in shade but plant performed poorly when temperatures were higher in summer.

Similar Cultivars

‘Katz White’.

Comments

Easy to grow, didn’t need support netting; Good planted alongside Cheerful White, as White Wonder was a little later; Perhaps it our climate, but we did not find the stock in this trial to be attractive as individual cut flowers, the fragrance and colors are great making them useful in mixed bouquets, but not as focal flowers.

Postharvest

We use only plain water.
