Prairie Violet is a charming and non-aggressive perennial that graces your garden in early spring, blooming throughout the summer, and potentially reblooming in the fall. It serves as a larval host plant for several butterflies. It’s very unique when it goes to seed. Seeds emerge in a distinctive firm capsule, transitioning from green to tan and pointing upward when the seeds are ready. It is known for hybridizing with common violets, so beware. Also, ensure well-drained soil to prevent root rot in wet conditions.

Size options:

-50 cell tray (each cell is 5” deep x 2.25” wide)

-Pot (each pot is 2.5” x 3.5”)

-Seed Packet (each seed packet includes approximately 200 seeds)
