Wildflowers - Catchfly Seeds

These catchfly seeds are all flowers from the Silene genus, but some of these are annuals, and some are perennials. If you look at the Fast Facts tab of the detail page, you can quickly find out which are which. The perennial Silene wildflowers are pretty rare in nature, and so make interesting plants to grow. They can be a little tall and unstable, so will appreciate staking to prevent wind damage. The Royal Catchfly is one of the REDDEST flowers that we have ever grown - maybe tying with Cardinal Flower. These plants are called Catchfly, because the little pod that forms behind the flower is sticky, and little gnats can get stuck on them.
