• Question

  Hi, I sent an inquiry Saturday, and I also saw a question about a plant identified as silene. It was not the same as my plant, but very similar. I looked it up and I think the plant I photographed is Silene flos-cuculi or ragged robin, a native of Europe. Not a native NE plant.

  Answer

  CarolBEE, good evening. I've responded to your question, the plant is Lychnis flos-cuculi (ragged robin lychnis). If you have any other questions, you are welcome to email me directly at ahaines@nativeplanttrust.org.
