Pippi, I really don't know the variety of the sweet william. My dad gave me a bunch of seed and they have been crossing and reseeding for about 10 years now. I pull out the forget-me-nots because if I didn't, nothing else would stand a chance. They are horrible reseeders and for biennials, seem to spread with lightening speed. Have you ever tried Chinese forget-me-nots, Cynoglossum I believe? I had some from a 'wildflower' mix and they bloomed through the summer. Also, Salvia patens, which would probably be a perennial for you, is a WONDERFUL blue and blooms profusely. California bluebells, Phacelia campanularia are a wonderful blue as well.
JoAnn, I love your garden tour. The moth mullien seem to come and go quickly here, too. I had some reseed for a couple of years, and then poof! they never came back. the Baptisia Moonlight is beautiful. I think I need one of those to go with my blue.
