Moss Campion

Overview

The Moss Campion, Silene acaulis, is a low-growing, mat-forming perennial that flourishes in alpine environments. It stands 1-3 inches tall and spreads 6-12 inches wide, featuring dense, cushioned mounds of evergreen foliage. From late spring to early summer, it produces vibrant pink blooms that add a splash of color to rock gardens. Hardy and cold-resistant, it requires well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade conditions. Ideal for a textural ground cover.
