Nodding Catchfly

Nodding Catchfly is a flower that is native to southern Europe. This flower is closely related to the Catchfly, or Silene armeria. It can be started indoors but must be transplanted when it is very small, so as not to disturb the roots. If that is unfavorable it should be planted directly outdoors. Heavy to light, well-drained soil is preferable for this flower. Planting should be done in full sun with only partial shade.
