Brushstrokes Viola Seeds
Don't under-estimate these stout, fluttery little friends. They are tough as old boots. Frost tolerant, heat tolerant, smell wonderful, and can even take a trampling. They are the go-to flower for when its too early or too late in the season for all other outdoor flowers, and we are their biggest fans.
Brushstrokes are are a riot of color and pattern. They appear to be painted with stripes and batiked in bold gem tones, ranging from pinks and purple, to yellow and orange, to bronze and burgundy.
