BEST TO PLANT DIRECTLY IN THE GARDEN

In Mild Winter Climates, sow seeds in fall and they will form deep roots over winter for a long spring bloom.

In Cold Winter Areas, sow in spring as soon as soil can be worked.

Violas can handle light frosts and bloom best when they get a good start in cool spring weather. Sow seeds 1 inch apart in well-drained soil in full sun. Cover 1/4 inch deep, firm soil and keep seed bed moist. Be patient; germination takes 14 to 21 days. When large enough to handle, thin or transplant seedlings to 4 to 5 inches apart.

To Start Early Indoors: Sow seeds 1 inch apart in seed starting mix, 8 to 10 weeks before last frost. Cover 1/4 inch deep, keep moist and provide a good light source until ready to plant outside when weather warms up. Transplant 4 to 5 inches apart when large enough to handle.

 

GROWING NOTES

These carefree plants are covered with cheerful flowers throughout spring and early summer. After initial flowering, cut plants back to several inches tall for another flush of bloom if the weather is not too hot. The dainty edible blossoms taste of wintergreen. They make great garnishes and are also perfect for candying.
