The Dog Violet (Viola riviniana) is one of our most beautiful woodland plants to flower in spring. The blue-violet flowers appear in early spring above the heart-shaped rounded leaves.
This plant is happiest in a well drained organic soil in partial shade. It will grow in deep shade under deciduous trees, where it will flower before the leaves are out on the trees.
Detailed growing instructions are supplied with the Viola riviniana (Dog Violet) plants, and can be viewed here.
