Description



Our high-quality Viola cornuta seeds are selected for stable high germination rate, which can grow into robust horned violet plants with outstanding ornamental value. Viola cornuta is a classic cool-season perennial flower, always planted as biennial flowers in gardening projects. The plant grows compactly with a height of 10-25cm, branches densely and bears countless small delicate flowers with unique horn-shaped spurs at the back of petals.
The biggest highlight of Viola cornuta is its ultra-long blooming cycle, which can continuously bloom from autumn through winter until the next spring, adding bright colors to the bleak low-temperature garden. This flower has strong cold resistance and excellent frost tolerance, adapts to fluctuating cool weather, and can thrive in full sun or partial shade environment. It is not picky about soil, only requiring loose, fertile and well-drained substrate to prevent root rot caused by water accumulation. Besides home gardening, Viola cornuta is widely used in garden bedding, border edging, hanging baskets, courtyard decoration and large-scale landscape engineering. It is also pollinator-friendly to attract bees and butterflies, and resistant to deer damage.
