Viola odorata

I went away for a week to chase the eclipse, and when I got back there were lots of new flowers. Yay spring! 11 Apr 2024 #violets #violets-natives #wildflower #container

#naturalized #sweetviolet sprouting up -- was scooping mud out of a drain (a chore) and my efforts were rewarded with this lovely sight. #nativeplant #native #ediblelandscaping #edible #wildflower 13 Apr 2021 #itsthelittlethings

The #violet blooms are over but the leaves are still pretty. This pot that I started a couple months ago seems pretty happy. And I didn't know violet leaves could get this big -- probably because I didn't realize they were violets once the flowers were gone. 6 June 2020

Finally caught the open #seedpod of the #viola-odorata #sweetviolet #dogviolet #wildflower #nativeplant #native 5 June 2020

@cyndi yeah I've seen several dry pods empty -- this must have opened today and just not popped because we've had two days of thunderstorms.

Violets in my lawn make me sooooo happy 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 11 Apr 2020 #viola-odorata #sweetviolet #wildflowers #easter

Work has been so stressful lately, but taking a few minutes outside in the sunshine to pull tiny weeds out of my #violet pot TOTALLY changed my mood. Some deep breaths, sunshine, fresh air, and flowers to adore... My whole attitude changed. 9 Apr 2020

That's what those are! I was in my neighbor's yard the other day and she has those growing all over her yard

Another blessing in the midst of difficulty: I found my favorite #wildflower in the front yard this morning as I was picking up sticks that had fallen during the winter. I was literally searching online last night, looking for someone to order them from, because I hadn't seen any nearby yet. I had planned to go for a walk in the woods to find some to dig up and bring home. But they were here all along, waiting for me to discover them. 5 Apr 2020
