Red campion

Silene dioica

Description:

alien species but not invasive, native to Europe. need ID confirmed

Habitat:

Carolinian forest

Notes:

I spotted this at the privately owned forest of Marcy's Woods. I have never seen this plant before or anywhere else. I was surprised to learn it wasn't native but I'm not 100% sure on the ID. It was the closet match I could find.
