Advice from our agronomist
Sow in early summer. As a biennial, sweet William is sown in May or June into a nursery bed, 0.5-1 cm deep. In moist soil the seedlings appear within 8-10 days.
Move in August. At the end of summer transplant to the flowering position at 30 x 40 cm so the plants can root well before winter. A generous display follows the next summer.
Deadhead spent heads. Removing faded flower heads prolongs flowering and keeps plants tidy. For bouquets, cut the stems when half the florets have opened.
