How to Grow and Care for Wall-rockets

White wallrocket (Diplotaxis erucoides) is a member of the same family as cabbage, mustard greens, and broccoli. It is native to the west Mediterranian where people forage for it as an edible wild green. There has been some research into cultivating white wallrocket as an agricultural food crop.

Perennial wall-rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia) is a plant species that is a member of the Brassicaceae family. Perennial wall-rocket is named for the hardiness of this plant, as well as the plant's tendency to grow out of walls and cliff faces. Perennial wall-rocket foliage is aromatic when crushed.

Annual wallrocket (Diplotaxis muralis) is indigenous to Africa and Eurasia. It most likely immigrated to other parts of the planet by being a stowaway in ships’ ballasts. The leaves are delicious and can be used as a salad green.

Vineyard wall-rocket (Diplotaxis viminea) is a widespread herb that is classed as a minor weed in several countries including Germany and Romania. A 2016 risk assessment concluded that the potential invasive risk for naturalization in the United States was low, but should be monitored. Its rapid spread and small yellow flowers preclude ornamental growth.

Diplotaxis ibicensis is a resilient wildflower native to rocky coastal terrains, where it thrives in sandy soil. Its distinguishing features include vibrant yellow blossoms and deeply lobed leaves, a testament to its adaptability in harsh, sun-drenched habitats. This hardy perennial presents a modest stature, often forming dense, low-lying clusters that blanket its rugged landscape.
