Catchfly None-So-Pretty Seed

Silene armeria

Item #1178

Annual or tender perennial. Planted in mass, catchfly has an absolutely breathtaking impact (and this may be an understatement)! Sticky stem captures small insects, hence the name catchfly. Excellent for borders, containers, and rock gardens. Catchfly is a tender perennial in areas with very mild winter climates, otherwise grown as an annual. Reseeds easily. Grows in a wide variety of conditions.
