Lychnis flos-jovis (Jupiter’s flower) sends up a hairy flower stem around 30 cm high from an attractive rosette of silvery furry leaves. The very beautiful heads of reddish pink campion flowers are out in summer.

This plant is happiest in well drained soil in full sun, although it does surprisingly well in partial shade in our garden. It is a native of the central Alps.

Detailed growing instructions are supplied with the Lychnis flos-jovis (Campion) plants, and can be viewed here.
