Hybridises with : Bladder Campion to produce a hybrid which lacks a common name, but the scientific name is Silene uniflora × vulgaris. The above examples are un-likey to be this hybrid since that thinly scattered across the UK in places far removed from where the photos were take. Easily confused with : Bladder Campion which some experts and books think are one and the same thing. But Bladder Campion is more branched and stands more erect. Despite its name, it can also be found well away from the sea near the spoil heaps from old lead mines and gravestones in North Wales covered in lead-rich stone chippings, for it likes lead.
