Lychnis coronaria aka Rose Campion
Circa 1828 - Mounds of silvery-green/grey, woolly stems and foliage with neon magenta flowers! What more could you ask of a flower???
Great as a cut flower!
A beloved old plant once called Mullein Pink and Lamp Flower, as the felted leaves once were used in the making of wicks. Its brilliant magenta colouring is electric in combination with the silver-gray leaves on branching stems. An easy to grow, long-blooming and low maintenance short-lived perennial or biennial. Most plants do not survive harsh winters after flowering but it does readily self seed to perpetuate a planting. Despite its short life span, it is certainly worth growing.
