Blooming away this evening L 'Occulata' . One of many grown from seed last spring . Well worth the wait, beautiful silvery foliage and white flowers with a very soft pink eye. And If in need of a light , apparently 'Lychnos' is Greek for lamp. The wooly leaves were used as lamp wicks . Maybe I won't try that out |
My Lychnis has bright magenta flowers. The white flowers make it look like a whole different plant. If yours seed around like mine do, maybe we can trade some baby plants?
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I'll have plenty babies for you.
DeleteI didn't know that about the foliage. I have this pinky-white one too. I also got a dark magenta double flowered one last year on sale. It's just started blooming. It's really different. Great photo.
