Campion, Red (Silene Dioica) Seeds

In spite of its name, the Red Campion boasts eye-catching pink petals that make a welcome splash of colour in a shady spot. In mythology, they were a favourite of fairies, and in your garden they’re highly attractive to bees. Flowers shortly after the bluebell- planting them together can create a hedgerow of pink-and-blue eye candy.
