Notes
'Floral Power Plum Antique' viola (Viola cornuta 'Floral Power Plum Antique') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is one of the more cold-hardy annuals and can keep growing through light freezes with some winter protection. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The fragrant blooms come in gold, rose, and violet, and bees and butterflies visit them. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
