As reliable and as popular as the day itself, Violas have been part of the British garden for many a decade. An absolute favourite among plant breeders has meant that there is an incredible array of Violas to choose from and the gardener can play with planting schemes and designs that suit all colours and settings. If you are looking for a Viola that is bright, bold and instantly grabs your attention then 'Red Blotch' is perfect for you. Its dense little crown of soft mid green leaves is coated in a constant supply of bright red flowers with black petal bases and a yellow eye make it perfect for open borders, containers, or seasonal bedding displays.
The highly impressive Viola is as hard as nails, and it is easy to see why gardeners love them. Planted in Autumn it will flower through the winter before a magnificent crescendo of flowering in the spring. These plants can take froze ground, snow and the wind and still come up colourful, it also is happy to grow in partial shade. If planting in open ground, fork over the area to make sure it will not waterlog and if in a container, invest in a decent potting compost. To make these plants thrive add some slow-release fertiliser in spring, pick over dead flowers from time to time and water in dry periods if container grown.
Violas are superb spring bedding plants and when under planted with bulbs such as Tulip or Daffodil they provide the perfect seasonal display as nature awakes from its winter slumber. Planted in numbers in a bed or border or in a hanging basket this Viola brightens up any garden and will always work hard for the grower.
