Viola ‘Etain’
Perennial Pansy |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.545.330
Also known as Violas, or Winter Pansies. This lovely hybrid produces creamy-white flowers, edged in lavender-purple, with a yellow blotch. Plants are low and compact, producing flowers throughout the cooler months of the year, especially in spring and fall. Makes for an interesting contrast colour in the border. Divide plants each September, since they are not long lived and need to be renewed regularly. Flowers are edible!
