The #1 Viola in America, thanks to great heat tolerance and the ability to overwinter. Small brilliant blooms top compact, well-branched, fast-growing plants.
A true perennial, Penny is often the first Viola to bloom in spring, before the frost is completely gone from the ground. Very free-blooming, it scatters rich blue “faces” freely above the deep green leaves, welcoming another season of beauty into the garden!
Very tolerant of heat, Penny is a great choice for southern and western gardens, where spring can give way suddenly to climbing temperatures and an early summer. And this tough-as-nails perennial doesn’t mind a touch of frost — it’s all in a day’s work for Penny!
This plant is just 4 to 6 inches high and 6 to 8 inches wide, perfect for neat accents, mass plantings, and overflowing containers. Zones 4-9. Pkt is 25 seeds.
