Lychnis flos-cuculi, commonly known as Ragged Robin, is a beautiful native UK pond and bog plant known for its delicate, star shaped pink flowers that appear in late spring to early summer.
This marginal plant thrives in damp soil and shallow water, making it ideal for pond edges, wildlife ponds, and bog gardens. Its natural appearance fits perfectly into informal and native planting schemes.
Ragged Robin is particularly valued for supporting pollinators such as bees and butterflies, helping to create a more balanced and wildlife friendly pond environment.
