It got there from errant seed. It probably hitchhiked in the pot of some
other plant you got. Its one example that not all weeds are bad.

The plant is a short lived perennial that easily establishes itself from
seed.

I have the original fuchsia color flowered form and I encourage it to reseed
itself by shaking the mature seed capsules over a desired spot I want it to
grow. The plants are self pollinating and produce many mature seed capsules.

Lychnis coronaria Alba???

Yeah. That's it!

I'm still not sure how it got there, and not anywhere else. And I'm a
little amazed that it picked a good spot, too.

Thanks!
