It is an annual herb growing 25 to 60 centimeters tall, but known to reach 90 centimeters in height. The leaves are up to 6 centimeters long, sheathing the stem at the bases. The inflorescence bears a head-like cluster of flowers, their bases enclosed in a large, expanded mass of wide, claw-tipped bracts. The flower corollas are each further encased in a tubular calyx of sepals. The petals are bright pink to magenta or lavender in color with darker veins. Each is heart-shaped or divided into two lobes at the tip. The fruit is a capsule containing many tiny seeds.

<i>Petrorhagia nanteuilii</i> Species of flowering plant

Petrorhagia nanteuilii is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae. Common names include childing pink, productive carnation, proliferous pink and wild carnation. P. nanteuilii in the British Isles was formerly not reliably separated from P. prolifera but now the two are recorded as separate species. Because of this the commonly used name proliferous pink is probably not correct for this taxon. It is an annual that grows to 50 cm tall. Leaves are linear, opposite and stem clasping. Small pink flowers are produced in small ovoid heads, with usually only one flower visible at a time. These are followed by ovoid seed capsules.
