Lychnis chalcedonica 'Alba'

Lychnis chalcedonica 'Alba' is the rare, white-flowered form of Lychnis chalcedonica. The large clusters of white flowers go with nearly everything in the garden, making this variety a good choice for subtle color schemes where the scarlet-flowered type might be too bold.

Lychnis chalcedonica is an heirloom flower that has been grown in American gardens since the 18th century.

Also known as Lychnis chalcedonica 'Rauhreif'.
