Very pretty, is it the same family as the silver leaf one?

It has got silver leaves, Pp, and yes, they're in the same family. :-)

Oh - sad. I wish I'd bought two of these. I would have, had I realised how lovely it is. Maybe it will produce seeds - said she hopefully. :-)

If it's like the darker pink Lychnis, it will definitely seed itself around. VERY pretty - not seen this one before - it's a bit like my wild Red Campion!

It's a lovely clear pink Spritz

I'd like to know if it produces seed or not, Spritz - this variety has been described as sterile.

Ohhh nooooooo....I was hoping I could collect some seeds, Bamboo! I wish I could remember where I got it...I'd go back and get another one.

I found that sterile info on one website - none of the others mentioned it at all.

Hmmm...let's wait and see, then. :-)
