Sweet William Dianthus Seeds

Sweet William Dianthus is an annual that makes a classic and colorful addition to cut flower gardens, beds and containers.

Sweet William Dianthus Seeds

These charming flowers are easy to grow and maintain since they're drought-tolerant and deer-resistant. They also adapt well to poorer soils. Clusters of blooms in single or double flower options offer an alluring, clove-like fragrance that helps attract butterflies, bees, hummingbirds and other beneficial pollinators.

Plant Sweet William in full sun to partial shade in late spring after all danger of frost is past, and enjoy its beauty all summer long. Flowers are long-lasting and harmonize well with many other blossoms, such as upright snapdragon and verbena. Pair cut blooms in arrangements with gladiolus, smaller sunflower varieties and foliage like eucalyptus to add textural contrast.

What to Consider When Browsing Sweet William Seeds

Harris Seeds offers many different Sweet William seeds to meet your growing needs and preferences. Consider the following options when deciding:

  • Color: Choose whether you'd rather have a single color flower or bicolored blooms, or opt for a mix to enjoy multiple hues.
  • Height: Dwarf varieties can range between 6 and 10 inches, while taller ones for cut flower gardens typically reach 20 to 25 inches. Use the larger ones as the focal point in beds or containers, and surround them with their smaller companions for visual interest.
  • Space: You'll want to determine if you're planting in beds or containers (or both!) and choose the cultivars that best align with the space you have available.
  • Timing: Depending on your preferences, you can directly sow Sweet William seeds or start them indoors and transplant them at about 6 weeks.
