Viola Cornuta (Viola Cornuta Yellow Perfection) - Perfect for old-fashioned gardens or cottage gardens, Violas are simple to grow from flower seeds, and they have so many uses. Viola Yellow Perfection has glowing lemon-yellow color from early spring into summer, and it typically grows 6 - 8 inches in height. Viola plants are just lovely and so well-suited to edging a border, rock and alpine gardens, hanging baskets, containers, and window boxes. Butterflies love to flutter about Violas finding them a ready source for food. Viola flower care includes trimming back the plant after the blooms are done in the spring. This will encourage another bloom in the fall when temperatures are cooler.
Common Questions
Are pansies edible?

Why do my pansies stop blooming in the summer?

Why are my pansies spindly?
Check to see if your plants are overcrowded, pansies need to be spaced 6 inches apart. Make sure they are getting enough light especially when starting seeds inside.

When do pansies bloom?

Do pansies grow better in containers or in the ground?
Pansies flourish in both pots and raised beds. Because they have shallow roots, it's important not to plant them too deeply in dense soil. Always opt for well-draining soil for beds and a light potting mix for containers, ensuring that the containers also have drainage holes.
