    I agree with Edd image  but it's now known as   Silene coronaria image

    I have this and love it to bits.  As tough as old boots, seeds everywhere so you can transplant to wherever you need a bit of colour and you can dig it up easily to get rid when you're fed up with it.  It does all that in my garden but may behave differently in yours image

    I hadn't registered that. What else has changed?

    No idea Nut - I don't usually remember these things, but we had loads of this outside the office where I used to work and every summer colleagues would ask me what it was.  It was no good telling them it was Lychnis as they'd look it up and tell me I was wrong image so I had to remember Silene image

    I do remember geranium/pelargonium ... that's probably a triumph image
