Silene schafta, the Caucasian campion[1] or autumn catchfly, is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae, native to western Asia. Growing to 25 cm (10 in) tall by 30 cm (12 in) wide, it is a mat-forming semi-evergreen perennial, with narrow leaves and clusters of bright pink, five-petalled flowers in late summer.[2]
The specific epithet schafta derives from a local Caspian name for this plant.[3]
Valued in the garden as easily grown groundcover for rock gardens,[4] S. schafta has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[5]
