Sweet Williams is a short-lived perennial but I prefer to grow them as biennials so I sow fresh seeds each late spring/early summer so that they will flower the following spring.
Clusters of fragrant, bi-coloured flowers, these sweet Williams will bloom from mid-spring onwards. Easy to grow, these fabulous traditional cottage garden plants also make wonderful cut flowers.
