Has anyone got any idea what this flower is. The plant was given to us by a neighbour. She said she thought is was a Pink. We have googled it but can't find any information.
Thanks
Jackie
Looks like Ragged Robin [ Lychnis flos coculi ]
I'll go with that Pdoc
Me too. It likes damp soil, as opposed to pinks that will cope with it dry.
It could be dianthus superbus.
i think it's a dianthus.
I had a packet of seed that produced mixed colours with blooms like that.

MIne were from Chiltern seeds not T&M but they look the same
Agree with nut this is my ragged robin
Zenjeff, that's the double cultivar whose name escapes me. The species is much more like the OP.
Nice to know nut the name of mine is Jenny
Thankyou Zenjeff
