Product description

The Winter Flowering Penny Yellow Viola is a cheerful, compact plant that brings a burst of vibrant golden colour to your garden during the coldest months. Supplied in pots, these strong plants are ready to go straight into borders, containers, or hanging baskets. Their bright yellow blooms stand out against winter’s grey backdrop, making them perfect for refreshing tired displays and adding instant seasonal charm. Hardy and dependable, they’ll keep flowering even in frosty conditions, providing reliable colour when most other plants have faded.

For best results, plant your Penny Yellow Violas in full sun or partial shade, in well drained soil. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells, and deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. These low maintenance plants are naturally resilient to cold weather, making them ideal for winter gardens. With a little care, they’ll thrive throughout the season, offering dependable colour and structure to beds, baskets, and patio pots.

Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.

Instructions

Top Tip

Pair Violas with small evergreen plants (like Ivy or Dwarf Conifers) to give structure and contrast, making the flowers stand out more.

How to Water

Water Violas regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells. Avoid waterlogging by ensuring good drainage, and reduce watering slightly in colder, wetter weather to prevent root problems.

How to Plant

Plant Violas directly into borders, containers, or hanging baskets, spacing them evenly to allow for growth. Firm the soil gently around the roots, water well after planting, and position in full sun or partial shade for the best display.
