Description

The listing, Moss Campion ~Silene acaulis has ended.

Moss Campion

~>Will be white, pinkish white, or pink flowers
~>Moss Campion is a 'walkable' plant. It can be used in areas with traffic such as paths and trails. It fills in those bare nooks and crannies and is even used in lawns as a replacement to common grass. It thrives with very little water, so it can save you in money on your water bill in the summer. Pretty neat little plant, I think.
This plant is attractive to bees, butterflies and/or birds

Questions & Comments

How many seeds are in this auction ??? and how fast do they spread

50 seeds.

Here is a comment I found on the Dave's Garden website by user ericabell:
"...It came up again this spring and the one plant has grown so large it has taken up half the flowerbed. It's flowers are a pure white, so it seems to "glow" in the evening when it's flowers first open; and they have a nice sweet scent. It will bloom until the first frost here..."

You can easily spread the plant:
Propagating moss campion: By division, cuttings, and seed.

It seems that it doesn't spread invasively. From what I've read so far, it spreads slowly or stays in it's place fairly well. If you want it to spread, propagate by the methods previously mentioned.

I hope that helps you.
