Horned pansy (Horned violet) (biennial)
Viola cornuta
These small, dark purple-yellow flowers are a symbol of spring. Many people can probably remember it from grandmother’s garden.
They bloom from March to June with bright flowers.
Variety with a capricious germination rate. We recommend dense sowing.
