Bladder Campion Silene vulgaris
Flores > Caryophyllales > Caryophyllaceae
A common wildflower found in meadows, forests and fields. Easy recognizable with its bell-shaped white/pink flower. The young shoots may be used as foot. Young leaves are served in salads while older leaves are boiled or fried.
The bell-form shape of the flower is the distinguishable characteristic of this species.
In summer, I see this flower frequently in meadows in different parks with large patches of meadows.
