Viola

A large genus of mostly low growing plants with large flowers blooming in spring and summer. They are used as mass plantings and in rock gardens. They can be found world wide with most from the northern hemisphere.

Seed germination of Viola species can be tricky. Often germination is spread-out over many weeks at cooler temps. We do not yet have the best methods worked out to germinate the species we have but wish to point out that some Viola species respond to smoke or GA3 treatment. We have had good results sowing the seeds in a small plastic bag with damp seed medium and keeping them at room temps for 3 weeks then moving the bag to the fridge and every few weeks checking to see if any seeds have germinated- we remove the seeds that have germinated and leasve the rest in the fridge. After 12 weeks, the rest of the seeds are moved to room temp for three weeks and check every other day for germination, any seeds that have not germinated are moved back to the fridge again.
Or the seeds can be sown and put outside in a sheltered location and they should germinate in a year or two.

  Viola corsica
Code: VC03-A7
Price: $2.85

Quantity in Basket: none
 


'Corsican violet' VIOLACEAE:

A choice small species with decumbent stems (means that the stems come out from the plant and lay down and the ends of the stems grow upward)with many blue flowers. Blooms well the first year and puts on a very showy display the second year, starting in late spring and blooming throughout the summer. I like to mix them in pots and baskets were their long stems tumble over the edges and the large open-faced flowers face outwards - a good choice. Full sun to half-day shade. Blooms all summer into fall. Flowers include all blue, some with light markings and others with white 'lips' with lighter face markings. Flowers are held up 5 to 7 inches off the ground during flowering and plants grow to be 8 to 10 inches wide. Best in full sun or some light shade, we have a few plants that have been growing in shade most of the day and they struggle and become long and leggy but have lived for three years that way and have bloomed a little. But in fullsun the numberof flowers produced cover the plants in solid clouds of blue.

Zones 4-8. Native from grassy areas in Corsica.

'Larkspur Violet' or 'Purple Prairie Violet' or 'Prairie Violet' or 'Crow-feet Violet' Violaceae:

This clump-forming plant grows 5 to 8inches tall and about 6 inches wide. Plants have deep violet-blue colored flowers which are born on leafless stalks from the center of the clumps. Blooms from early spring into early-mid summer. Leaves are divided into bird-foot-like segments with very narrow leaflets. The Divided leaves look like wild delphinium foliage - thus the common name of 'Larkspur Violet'. This species is similar in appearance to the 'Bird Foot Violet'( Viola pedata) but with smaller flowers that are more pea-like in shape while the Bird-Foot Violet has more open shaped flowers. Both species like open, lose ground that drains quickly in sun to part shade.

Zones 3-8. Native from Saskatchewan to Ohio south to Oklahoma and Arkansas. Cover seeds, darkness needed for germination which Starts in 2 or 3 weeks at F 65. Germination can be spread out over many weeks. If no germination in 5 weeks put in the fridge (32-39F) for 7 to 12 weeks then move to 65F, like many Violas seed germination often occurs as the soil temps are rising just above freezing in the spring. Sows seeds in the fall in a wide pot or tray and keep in a sheltered location ( I cover the trays with oak leaves) and cover with a thin layer of winter mulch and leave out side over winter. Remove winter covering in early spring.

100 seeds.
