Definition
Plural of campion; flowering plants of the pink family (Caryophyllaceae) with colorful flowers like pink, red, or white.
Etymology
From Middle English, possibly from Old French champagne or related to 'champion' (the flower was associated with flowering meadows). The etymology is uncertain but may relate to champion in the sense of 'flowering in open fields.'
Kelly Says
Campions are named so mysteriously that no one's completely sure why—some think it's because they 'champion' or dominate meadows with their bright flowers, making them the champions of the field in springtime.
