Overview

Dainty, small-headed pansies in shades of purple, violet, cream and yellow, appear in profusion for a long period throughout the summer. The flowers of this annual or short-lived perennial are edible and can be used to garnish puddings or add to salads. Perfect plant for the woodland garden, they also make very pretty addition to posies. If the flowers are left on the plant they will self-seed freely, otherwise pick them regularly to encourage more to form.

Care guide

Sow seed into trays from late winter to early spring or in late summer Germination should occur within 10 to 21 days (temperatures above 20°C can inhibit germination). Cover seeds completely, Violas prefer darkness to germinate and keep the growing media moist. Pot on seedlings individually and grow on in a cooler place. Plant out when roots have filled the pots or modules and young plants have been hardened off for frost resilience. Sow: March to May or August to September Flowering: May to October or November to April
