Viola Celestial™ Starry Night
Perennial Pansy |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.545.960
(='Lord Primrose Vio-135') Also called Violas or Violettas, these are related to garden pansies, but usually propagated by division or cuttings rather than by seed. Generally more tolerant of summer heat and a little hardier than their large-flowered cousins. These are versatile plants, useful for edging, in the rock garden, and especially in containers or window boxes. Superb companions to spring-flowering bulbs. This selection has primrose-yellow petals with contrasting edges of mauve purple. Trim plants back in June to rejuvenate the foliage. USPP#18253: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
