Ragged Robin Silene flos-cuculi (Syn. Lychnis flos-cuculi)
A beautiful native British perennial, with delicate pink flowers and ragged petals.
Ragged Robin thrives in damp conditions such as wetland meadows alongside companions like meadow buttercup. Once a common sight along roadsides and in wet meadows, ragged Robin's numbers have dwindled due to modern farming practices and wetland drainage.
A reliable perennial, it is an ideal addition to any damp border, bog garden, pond edge, or wildflower meadow.
Sow ragged Robin in spring from March to May, or in autumn from August to October.
All our native wildflower seed is sourced from stock grown in the wild in Britain. It is then multiplied up commercially and packed in the UK so you can be confident you are buying native British wildflower seed.
