Dianthus barbatus dwarf double mix

Sweet William is an old-fashioned cottage garden plant that usually grows as a self seeding biennial. This strain produces a low mound of light green leaves, bearing showy clusters of bright double flowers in mixed shades from white through to pink, salmon and red, often with a contrasting eye. Excellent for edging or massing. Remove fading flowers to encourage more buds to form. Pruning plants back hard after blooming will encourage them to survive for another year. Self-sown seedlings may be moved in fall or early spring.
