Dianthus barbatus Barbarini™ Lilac
Dwarf Sweet William |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.185.560
Sweet William is an old-fashioned cottage garden plant that usually grows as a self seeding biennial. This dwarf hybrid strain produces showy clusters of fragrant, fringed flowers with lilac-pink petals. Terrific in containers or for edging borders. Developed to flower well even in the first year, then hopefully return for a second. 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.
