Question
Found this at Cedar Hill in Northboro MA in an upland field. It was windy so it was a little tricky getting the photos. It has 5 petals and very long narrow opposite leaves.
Answer
Dear kobrien, this plant is Dianthus armeria (Deptford pink), a member of the carnation family (Caryophyllaceae). It is found in open locations, such as fields and roadsides, similar to where you located this plant.
