Viola cornuta 'Tiger Eye Red' F1
- Perfect for Pots
- Self-sows
- Evergreen
- Good for Cutting
- Scented
I hope I have not said it too often with the new introductions in this catalogue, but this truly is one of my favourite discoveries of our trials last year
They make some of the best-ever small table centre pot fillers, and are truly marvellous cut and arranged in mini glasses, for scattering all around the house. Prolifically cut-and-come-again, these keep on flowering for months at a stretch almost whenever you sow them.
Pick the flowers and scatter them onto salads.
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
