|
Bloom time: May-June |
Silene gallica var. gallica, an approximately 50cm tall European annual, grows wild on dry riverbeds or roadsides, with long- and glandular- hairs throughout. Stems branch well, and the lower parts somewhat crawl on the ground. With no petioles, leaves are 2-4cm in length, 0.5-1cm in width, and oblong-shaped; the ones on underparts are broadly spatulate at the ends, with margins entire and somewhat undulate. One centimeter long, 5-petalled, white to light red flowers set themselves on stem tops facing the same direction. Bloom time: May-June. |
