Common Blue Violet - Bare Root Plant

$10.00

(Viola sororia)

The Viola genus has hundreds of species leading to the prominence of these flowers, but did you know Maine has multiple native violets? The Common Blue Violet, is as its name suggests, the most common. It is a perennial groundcover, rarely growing more than 6” tall. In early May, blue, purple, white and any combination of these colored flowers erupt into a beautiful sight. Some years these early bloomers will put out a second set of flowers in the fall.

Aside from their early season interest, violet flowers are delicious on salads, made into syrups, or jellies. This species is also very shade tolerant, making it an excellent candidate for groundcovers underneath large trees or on the north side of a building.

Hardiness: Zone 3-9

Soil: Loam, clay, average moisture

Light: Full sun to part shade

Options:

Bare Root Plants can be planted into loose soil in the Fall or Spring and kept moist until new growth emerges.
