Bladder Campion (Silene vulgaris) plug plants
Price range: £1.25 through £3.95
Bladder Campion (Silene vulgaris) is fairly widespread across the UK, though it is mostly absent from western Scotland and northern Ireland. The plant thrives in open grasslands, dry banks, and cultivated areas, particularly along rocky field margins. Its distinctive white flowers have a unique inflated calyx and release their strongest scent at dusk. This fragrance attracts night-flying moths, which serve as the plant’s main pollinators. Bladder Campion’s delicate blooms and subtle aroma make it a charming feature of wild meadows, roadside verges, and less-disturbed rural landscapes.
Our Bladder Campion plug plants for sale are priced per plant. This product has a minimum quantity of 10 plug plants. For orders over 500 plug plants please contact us.
