'Sweet William' is a different flower to 'Pinks' for us. Sweet Williams have the same type of flower head, but many in a large inflorescence on a single stalk. Pinks are single blooms in a bare stem, with pale, grey-green, grass-like leaves.<br /><br />Pretty, whatever you like to call them!Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00496924033221866102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31566611.post-24827734663038145062009-09-02T10:32:30.417-07:002009-09-02T10:32:30.417-07:00I have never heard of pinks being called gillyflow...I have never heard of pinks being called gillyflowers before Hildred - they are one of my favourite flowers (and smells) and I have several varieties in my garden - all still blooming although Autumn has really set in.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31566611.post-84248583149269128502009-09-02T09:22:52.648-07:002009-09-02T09:22:52.648-07:00Those are really pretty flowers.

I used to call them spit flowers (there always seemed to be some sort of spit on the stems) and I always wanted them at the end of the four day hike. <br />I might try and get them in my garden, better phone my mum now!Marahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04464946195661953578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31566611.post-23240771511567745302009-09-02T01:52:59.510-07:002009-09-02T01:52:59.510-07:00Beautiful flowers.
