Contents

Silene coronaria, the rose campion, is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae, native to Eurasia. Other common names include dusty miller (which also refers to Centaurea cineraria and Jacobaea maritima ), mullein-pink and bloody William. In the United Kingdom it is still widely referenced under its synonym Lychnis coronaria. [1]

Description

It is a perennial growing to 80 centimetres (31 inches) tall by 45 cm (18 in) wide, with grey felted leaves and single, bright magenta flowers produced in succession around July. Though short-lived, the plant readily self-seeds in favourable locations. It is sometimes grown as a biennial. [1]

Etymology

The Latin coronaria means "used for garlands". [2] .

Cultivation

It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit, [3] as has the white-flowered cultivar 'Alba'. [4]
