Dianthus barbatus Sweet William

Over the years my red, white and pink sweet william have crossed and reseeded. I love to see what interesting new color patterns they produce.

Wow! So beautiful!

I read that D. barbatus tends to be a short lived perennial, so letting them cross and reseed sounds like the way to go.

Or lace. So, so pretty!

You don't kick walls down, you pull the nails out and let them fall.

One of the flowers I grew up with, growing in Mom's garden. Indeed they produce many patterns and shades when left on their own.
