Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Red Campion by the bridleway to Chesterton Red Campion is a common wayside plant. The flowers vary from dark to pale pink, (this one is fairly pale), and a white variety also occurs, with which it hybridises easily.
It has also been called Adders' Flower, Jack-by-the-Hedge, Red Mintchop, Soldiers' Buttons and Scalded Apples. It is a great favourite of the long-tongued bumble-bee and a good nectar plant for butterflies. Mashed-up seeds used to be used to treat snake bites. It is pollinated by long-tongued bumblebees and hoverflies. It is a food plant for the Rivulet, Campion, Lychnis, Twin Spot Carpet, Marbled Clover and Sandy Carpet moths.
