Viola Gem Pink Antique Seeds

Look, these flowers have "Gem" in their name. We had no choice, these seeds demanded to be a part of our family. Now they can be in yours. We're all one big happy family now. *GUSH*

Don't under-estimate these stout, fluttery little friends. Violas are tough as old boots. Frost tolerant, heat tolerant, super hardy, 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.

Includes 50 seeds
