Sea Campion (Silene uniflora) is a charming and durable alpine perennial that brings a touch of the rugged coastline to your garden. This low-growing plant forms a dense, spreading cushion of attractive blue-green, slightly succulent foliage. In late spring and summer, it is topped with unique, balloon-like white flowers—each delicate bloom features a distinctive inflated, veined calyx that gives the plant a whimsical, airy appearance.

As a tough-as-nails member of the Silene genus, Sea Campion is a specialist for rock gardens, stone walls, and gravel paths. It is exceptionally wind and salt-tolerant, making it a premier choice for coastal landscapes. Its mat-forming habit is perfect for suppressing weeds and softening the edges of sunny borders. Why you’ll love it: Whimsical "balloon" white flowers, beautiful glaucous foliage, and a rugged, low-maintenance nature that thrives in poor, rocky soils.

This healthy 4" live plant excels in full sun and requires sharp drainage to remain vigorous and healthy.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!

Please contact us, send a picture, and detail any damage, so that we can continue to improve our shipping process and make sure you receive the healthy plants you paid for.
