Lychnis miqueliana 'Momobana' (Momobana Japanese Woodland Catchfly)

Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 6-8a, at least 18" tall Origin: Japan

This deer-resistant woodland perennial hails from 5,000' elevation in the Japanese mountains of Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu. The upright stems are clothed with small green leaves and topped with clusters of 1" fleshy-peach colored flowers from July-October...a time when very little is flowering in the woodland garden. L. 'Momobana' (translated as "pink flower") is unusual in color compared with typical vermilion flowers of this species. L. miqueliana is best in open light shade or a couple of hours of sun in the morning. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
