How To Sow Sweet William Seeds / Dianthus Barbatus

Today I am sowing more seeds; Sweet Williams are hardy perennials that are often treated as biennials. Sow in the summer or autumn for strong plants that produce masses of flowers the following season.

It’s difficult to know how to express myself on social media when there is so much sorrow and devastation in the world we live in, particularly in Ukraine. My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Ukraine.

I have some of these in Florida and they are very hardy and can grow very dense which is great for keeping the weeds out.

I grew sweet william for the first time this year and love it! Such rich colors! Unfortunately, the variety I grew doesn’t have much fragrance.

Do you have any favorite varieties for scent?

I started mine in mid April here in zone 6b in TN. Started indoors. They are ready to garden off and transplant outside now, 1 mn later, late May. What is likely to happen please? Thank you.

Hello, I live in Egypt and I have William Sweet seeds. I want to know when it blooms when planted with seeds. Can I take the seeds from the flower after they wilt and replant them? Sorry for not being able to translate the explanation in the video. 🌹

Can you sow them in spring to plant out before or after your last frost date? Thanks
