Viola Sorbet™ ‘Lavender Ice’
Perennial Pansy |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.550.370
This hybrid selection is more tolerant of summer heat and winter cold than the annual pansy types. Excellent for massing, edging, rock gardens, and in containers. Nice for combining with spring flowering bulbs. Trim plants back by half in early June. This variety has little flowers in a clear lavender blue, with a white face and whiskers. Nice compact habit. Sometimes these will flower all winter in climates with mild weather.
