Product Description
Add effortless charm to your containers, hanging baskets and garden borders with our Viola Teardrops Mix. This carefully curated blend features a variety of Viola Teardrops known for their distinctive teardrop-shaped blooms and softly trailing habit. You can expect a vibrant palette of rich purples, creamy whites, sunny yellows and occasional bicolours for an eye-catching splash of colour throughout the cooler seasons.
Compact and versatile, these Violas typically reach around 20 cm in height and spread, making them perfect for small spaces where their cascading blooms can soften edges and add movement.
Our Viola Teardrops Mix is a reliable source of colour when little else is in bloom, typically flowering from January through to spring. Thriving in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade, they work especially well when paired with early spring bulbs or evergreen foliage, adding depth and seasonal interest to mixed displays.
We guarantee our great value mixture packs contain a comprehensive blend of variety and colours. By definition, the components of the mixtures are not labelled/named on arrival.

Growing at a glance…
Our plants are available in two main formats to suit different gardening needs and planting times: Maxi plug plants and garden-ready plug plants.
Maxi plugs are young, UK-grown plants that will need care and attention. Supplied in trays of 40 or 80, they measure approximately 6-9 cm in height with a 2.2 cm plug width. When potted up and grown for a few weeks, they are capable and frost-hardy enough for winter conditions.
For a more immediate planting solution, our garden-ready alternatives come in trays of 15 or 30 larger plugs, each up to 15 cm tall with a plug width of around 5 cm. These robust plants can be planted straight into beds, borders or containers upon arrival and are well suited for both spring and autumn planting - though they should be avoided during periods of severe frost.
Regardless of type, all plants arrive nursery-fresh in protective packaging and benefit from regular watering after planting to help roots establish. For best results, plant in a weed-free location with adequate sunlight and continue to deadhead or prune as needed to encourage healthy, prolonged growth.
