Wildflower or not?
I thought this was a wildflower but I can find it in any of my books or on teh internet. Anyone have any idea what it might be, please? It is about a foot tall and spindly.

I'd guess a silene possibly conica from the very limited information provided. http://delta-intkey.com/angio/images/ebo01991.jpg -- Regards, Martin Brown |

It is not as common as it once was, so worth encouraging. http://www.arkive.org/corncockle/agrostemma-githago/ -- Spider. On high ground in SE London gardening on heavy clay |
