Flower of the Day - Wild Sweet William




Today's flower of the day is Wild Sweet William. These adorable star-shaped airy blooms are so pretty in periwinkle to lavender blue. They even have a light spicy-sweet fragrance and are perfect for brightening shaded woodland settings, borders or rock gardens. They bloom in late spring to early summer in full to part shade for lucky zones 3-8.

Happy gardening!
