Viola sororia ‘Freckles’


Woolly Violet

 USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.545.700


An unusual selection of a violet native to Eastern North America. Plants form a mound of large heart-shaped leaves, bearing loads of large pearly-white flowers in spring, each heavily spotted and freckled with deep china blue. Excellent choice for a children’s garden, growing easily in any shady area. Combines beautifully with spring blooming bulbs, especially Daffodils. These will seed around freely in the garden, so choose a site where they can spread. Flowers are edible!
