Lychnis Rose Campion Organic
Lychnis coronaria
Perennial (short-lived perennial to USDA zone 5, treated as an annual in colder climates). A popular plant in early American gardens including those of Thomas Jefferson, rose campion has been loved through generations for its striking magenta flowers in spring, and year-round rosette of wooly, silvery gray foliage. A truly hardy plant, it requires very little maintenance, needs only occasional water, and will grow almost anywhere, even in gravel! Self-sows readily. Deer resistant.
Full sun. Blooms summer.
Height: 2' - 3' tall
Days to Emerge:21 - 30 Days
Seed Depth: Surface
Seed Spacing: A group of 3 - 4 seeds every 12" - 15"
Thinning: When 1 1/2" tall, thin to 1 every 12" - 15"
When to sow outside: 4 to 6 weeks before average last frost, and up to 2 months before first fall frost.
When to start inside: RECOMMENDED: 8 to 10 weeks before average last frost.
Special germination instructions: Seed requires light to germinate. Press lightly into soil; do not cover with soil. Keep moist. Seed also benefits from stratification, a cold treatment. See inside of packet for details.
