Silene dioica aka Red Campion

Silene dioica, also known as red campion or red catchfly, is a herbaceous flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae. It is native to central, western, and northern Europe, and can be found locally in southern Europe. This plant has also been introduced in Iceland, Canada, the US, and Argentina. Red campion is a pretty, low-maintenance perennial that forms clumps of spoon-shaped, downy leaves and tall, rich green stems bearing delicate pink flowers. These flowers, which attract bees and butterflies, bloom profusely from late spring to early summer and sporadically until fall. However, the female flowers, borne on separate plants, are followed by seed capsules that can be poisonous. Despite this, red campion makes a good addition to a rockery and is a great plant for a moist wildflower meadow. As a houseplant, red campion is not challenging to grow and requires regular watering and direct light. It prefers well-draining soil and should be repotted each time it doubles in size, with no need for added fertilizers.
