Confused 0 people found this helpfulI just planted this seed and covered with vermiculite. I am confused about the light requirements. Your written description says filtered sun to part shade yet the facts listed below say full sun.

Love! Love! Love!❤️❤️❤️ 0 people found this helpfulI love this plant so much!! It's so easy to grow from seed and once you plant it, it grows so fast and fills the whole pot! Before you know it, it starts to shoot out these branches that starts to bud up. The flowers are so cute and the bright magenta pink is to die for!! I ordered a lot more seeds!! I want it everywhere in my garden!!! Love this plant!!

Slow to no germination 0 people found this helpfulI really love the variety from Park seed and generally have great success growing their seed but I'm struggling with the flowers this year. Only 25% of the Silene Carmine have germinated thru 2 separate attempts under grow lights, again, I could have disturbed the seeds during watering, not sure, I'll update this review if they suddenly emerge after 6 weeks.

Great plant but short lived in North Alabama 0 people found this helpfulThe plant had gorgeous flowers all spring through early summer. It died in mid-July here in North Alabama. It literally bloomed its heart out. Is it the heat that caused its demise?
