SILENE FIMBRIATA
In stock
Description
Dividing sprays of delicately cut and divided, frilly-petalled flowers hover above compact clumps of shiny green leaves. This novel and rarely seen plant makes a dramatic statement if grown beneath shrubs and is allowed to scramble through them.
Sowing Advice
For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
