Deco ideas:

Also use purples in pots and planters to enjoy their scent and embellish your balconies and terraces. Pair them with myosotis, daisies, priming, narcissus or tulips.

The stages of sowing:

Sow from April to June in a rich and fine land in mid-shade and then cup the soil. At the 3-4 leaf stage, plant the most vigorous plants 10 cm apart in the middle of the shade.

Just before winter, place your violets in pots under a shelter.

The following spring, plant them in the ground 25 cm away.
