Violet flowers offer considerably more color diversity than their name suggests. Depending on the species and cultivar, blossoms may appear violet, deep purple, lavender, lilac, blue-violet, white, cream, yellow, pink, or attractive bicolored combinations.
Many varieties feature contrasting centers, darker veins, pale throats, or softly blended petals. Flowers typically rise just above rounded, heart-shaped, or slightly elongated green foliage.
Their compact growth and delicate flowers make Violets especially attractive for woodland-inspired gardens, cottage borders, pathway edging, containers, naturalized plantings, and partially shaded garden corners.
