Description Fine Print
 
Viola corsica is a superlative violet from the Old World. It is uncommonly known but similar to the winter pansy with masses of small, violet-blue flowers with purple whiskers and tiny yellow centres atop low mounds of bright green leaves. Flowers bloom from spring into summer. Easy to grow in rock gardens, as a ground cover, in containers, and in small spaces. Fragrant and edible too. Will multiply and naturalize if allowed. If plants get leggy after blooming for months chop back by two thirds. Plants will quickly reflush with more growth and flowers.
