VIOLA 
While the Viola 
Cornutas are bien- 
nials they can be 
grown as annuals by 
planting in March or 
April. Very popular 
because of their free 
flowering habits and 
their dwarf spread- 
ing growth which 
make them ideal for 
front row planting in 
the border or for 
small beds. 
Much superior to 
Pansies for the northern garden as they bloom 
profusely all summer and fall and keep their 
neat, compact form, which is not true of the 
Pansy. Flowers are brilliant. No flower grower 
would be without them after a trial.
