Product description
This ten pack of Viola Blue Blotch bedding plants have a gorgeous design within their petals, making them standout in flower beds and plant displays. A bright yellow bud features in the centre of the flower, with a black colour dispersing from there. The outer section of the petals shows a dark shade of blue-purple, making the plant a very powerful addition above lush, green foliage. These plants will bloom in Autumn right through to Spring and can be planted straight from the tray upon arrival, flourishing with ease when given the correct care.
When planting these gorgeous Violas, moist, well-drained soil should be present, as well as good exposure to full sunlight when possible. When watering the plant, you should do so regularly, as that is recommended. Overwatering the plant will have harmful effects on the Violas, so please avoid this.

Instructions
Top Tip
Deadhead faded flowers frequently to encourage more blooms and keep the display looking fresh. Violas are perfect for spring and autumn bedding, providing long-lasting colour and pairing well with primroses, pansies, and other cool-season favourites.
How to Water
Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry weather or in containers. Violas thrive in cooler conditions and dislike drying out, but good drainage is essential to avoid root issues in wet conditions.
How to Plant
Plant Viola bedding plants in moist, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. These compact and free-flowering plants are ideal for borders, containers, and seasonal displays. Space plants 15–20cm apart to create a dense, colourful carpet of blooms.
