Sweet Willliams for Gilli


Sweet Willliams for Gilli

Last year I planted a Packet of Sweet William seed, I was so excited as the seeds began to sprout they were so very tiny, as they gradually got bigger I planted them in pots and baskets and waited for them to flower, nor realising they were biannuals, as you can see they are now lovely healthy plants, Im sure I will be rewarded later this year, after reading Gillis poem about Sweet William and Black Eyed Sue guess I will have to grow some Black eyed Sue's to bring the pair together again.
