@Tapirlord ? I'm confident this isn't Silene gallica. The first thing that comes to mind is Gypsophila tubulosa but I'm not confident with that though. Any thoughts?

Thank you for this re-evaluation of this sighting. I was not convinced it was Silene Gallica, but I was not able to find its true identity either. I have not seen this species before or since.
