Silene banksia (syn. Silene sieboldii) is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae. It is native to southeastern Siberia, most of China, and North Korea, and it has been introduced to Mongolia and Japan. [1] The species goes by the common names Chinese lychnis and jian chun luo. [2] It is a cultigen, domesticated in northeast Asia (almost certainly in China) at some time on the distant past. [3] No wild individuals are known. [3]
