SHETLAND RED CAMPION Silene dioica ssp. zetlandica (Height to 1m) is hard to miss if you visit the eponymous islands in July and August – roadside verges and hay meadows are full of it. It is similar to Red Campion but the flowers are larger and deeper pink. Some authorities do not recognise its subspecies status.
