Lychnis chalcedonica (Palava rakkaus)

A striking perennial color spot among the garden plants, also blooming a rather long time. The Finnish name means "burning love". An apt name, though with help of it the seedlings sell maybe better in garden shops. I have not bought my plants, because there are several places where the city is transporting waste soil, often with mixed seeds and roots from old gardens. It is possible to find all kind on interesting "second hand" products in such places, even the burning love.
