Product Description
Our Viola Teardrops Rose Blotch brings depth and contrast to cool-season plantings with its magenta-purple petals and distinctive dark centre. Subtle yet striking, it adds interest to containers, hanging baskets and borders during the quieter months of the year.
Rose Blotch grows to around 20 cm in height and spread - a natural choice for edging paths, filling gaps in mixed containers or cascading gently from window boxes. Its teardrop-shaped blooms create a textured, layered effect that works especially well in close-up arrangements.
Flowering from autumn through to spring, it thrives in fertile, well-drained soil and grows well in full sun or partial shade. Regular deadheading helps extend its bloom time, while pairing it with early-flowering companions like snowdrops, crocuses or hellebores adds seasonal interest and contrast to your displays.
