Abundant, lightly fragrant, 1 1/2″ blooms are a blend of plum, rose, mauve, and gold. Overwinters well in our unheated tunnel (Zone 5) from a fall planting, yielding 12–20″ long stems under those conditions. Plants produce abundant stems that tend to be a little thinner at harvest compared to varieties like the Nature™ series. Also known as pansy, Johnny jump-up, European field pansy, heart’s ease, and hybrid violet.
Edible Flowers: Decorative and edible garnish for salads and desserts with slight wintergreen flavor. While a popular choice for brightening up salad mix, the flowers are also good for candying.
