Pretty, fully frost-tolerant medicinal violet that's great as a ground-cover. Evergreen and blooms aromatic purple blooms at all times except high summer. Edible leaves. Historical ly used for respiratory ailments, insomnia, and skin disorders, is the traditional flower of Aphrodite, and symbol of Athens. This plant absolutely hates the heat - every year we have to nurse ours through summer. From May to September, grow indoors in a room temperature window or a cooled greenhouse. GOOD LUCK! Show more
