Sweet William and Cross-Pollenation

17 years ago

Okay, I now have some tall varieties of SW in my yard that I don't recall WSing ( a white, a medium pink, and a beautiful dark maroon with dark maroon tinged leaves).

Is it possible that, like I've heard happens with Columbine, the butterflies and bees have provided a different variety via pollenation?
