The bed of silver foliage set my camera into action. I am still trying to identify the others. This one with purple, purple-red attractive flowers is the Rose Campion
Also known as Silene Coronaria. Belonging to the carnation family. Silver and red make a striking combination!
Botanical name – Lychnis Coronaria.
Family – Caryophyllaceae
Beautiful picture. Prince’s Garden?
Yes, Princess Garden, Edinburgh. Forgot to mention that.
Lycnis Coronaria is realy beautiful.
The purple-red against silver is a stunning combination.
oh so lovely. i can just imagine this growing along the mountains somewhere
This was in a public garden, I guess it could grow on hill slopes too and can well imagine what a beautiful sight it would be
