Johnny Jump Up Viola 1/4lb

Cheerful blooms for cool seasons.

Johnny Jump Up Viola is a charming heirloom flower known for its cheerful purple, yellow, and white blooms that brighten up cool-season gardens with ease. These dainty yet resilient blooms are among the first to appear in early spring, often blooming through fall in cooler climates. Loved for their versatility and whimsy, Johnny Jump Up seeds are perfect for borders, rock gardens, containers, or even tucked between vegetable rows. Their long-lasting blooms are also edible, making them a delightful addition to salads, desserts, or garnishes for special dishes.

This cool season flower thrives in partial to full sun and well-drained soil. It readily reseeds itself, offering naturalized color year after year with minimal effort. Violas tolerate light frost and cooler temps better than many other flowers, making them an excellent choice for early or late-season planting. Compact in growth yet vibrant in presence, Johnny Jump Ups add a storybook quality to any planting scheme, with blooms that seem to smile back at you.
