Sweet Williams are dense, dark green plants with an explosion of many different coloured flowers in clusters of up to 30. Sweet Williams are very dense plants and are good for covering the soil to prevent weeds from growing under them. They are also very good at attracting bees, birds and butterflies and add life and buzz to the garden. The sweet Williams will self-sow if you don't cut off the flower stalks that have finished flowering.
