With its wonderfully contrasting flowers and foliage, the Orange Gnome Arkwright's Campion is sure to add some color and interest to the garden. Producing bright orange blooms up to 1.5 inches across, this lychnis’s bronze-purple foliage really sets them off. As a compact perennial, it grows to just over one foot high and can be used for many planting uses. The Orange Gnome Arkwright's Campion is perfect for adding some color to a hot border.    

As a low-growing and clump-forming perennial, this campion is ideal for growing at the front of a bed, lining a path, or decorating a container. A tough and hardy plant, it can tolerate zones 3 through 9, and being a perennial, it dies back in the winter. It is generally disease-free and is easy to grow and care for. 

Orange Gnome Arkwright's Campion Care

For the Orange Gnome Arkwright's Campion to thrive and put on the best show of blooms, it should be grown in full or partial sun. It prefers fertile soil that is free draining and evenly moist. To support its stunning flowers and foliage color, a slow-release, general fertilizer can be applied in the spring. Regular watering is required to keep the soil moist, particularly when grown in a pot. 

Faded flowers can be removed to help encourage new buds to form. Once the stems have begun to die back in winter, you can prune them to ground level. To increase longevity, pot-grown plants can be moved under cover to overwinter. 

Orange Gnome Arkwright's Campion Spacing

The Orange Gnome Arkwright's Campion remains compact with a final size of 12-15 inches tall and wide. To provide a mass of color, this lychnis can be planted out in a group at a spacing of 12-15 inches apart.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
