Notes
'Sorbet XP Deep Orange' viola (Viola cornuta 'Sorbet XP Deep Orange') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Few annuals handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It is a fragrant, evergreen clumper that blooms early and heavily in orange and violet.
Pairs well with Foam flower, Little bluestem, and Paperbark maple.
