Key features

Lychnis 'Jenny' (Ragged Robin 'Jenny')

This cultivar of the wildflower ragged robin is admired for its vivid cerise-pink flowers that create an eye-catching display in the early to mid summer, and sometimes also provide a second flush of blooms before autumn.

A perennial grows around 45-60cm in height, it has a neat and tidy growth habit. The bright colour contracts delightfully with blues or purples and looks good against a backdrop of ornamental grasses.

It is best to grow Lychnis 'Jenny' in a moist but free-draining soil in full sun or partial shade. The latter can be better in areas with lower water availability. Deadhead spent flowers to be rewarded with a second flush of flowers. Cut back lightly after flowering if you wish to retain neatness and vigour.
