1200x Red Maltese Cross Lychnis Flower Seeds - Perennial
The striking perennial flower known as the Red Maltese Cross (Lychnis chalcedonica) stands out by its vivid red blooms and distinctive star-shaped petals. This hardy plant grows to a height of two to three feet, preferring full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It's a great option for pollinator gardens because the flowers, which bloom from late spring to early summer, draw a range of pollinators, such as bees and butterflies.
Growing instructions:

Typically, seedlings germinate within around 14–21 days. keep the plants well-watered. Water plants thoroughly after planting especially during warm days. Flowering during July through to September.
