From Seed Savers: Sweet William has enchanted flower lovers since the 1500s. Dependable, pollinator-attracting plants provide continuous blooms of clove-scented flowers from late spring until frost. Bicolor shades of red, magenta, pink, and white make a splash in gardens, cut-flower arrangements, and salads. Yes, the petals are also edible! 18-24" tall, readily reseeds.
First purchased in November 2025 for the 2026 growing season.
