Viola Sorbet Marina makes an elegant statement, with delicate, graceful periwinkle-blue flowers with white centres and subtle deep purple ‘whiskers’. A truly unique and high-performing viola, that looks stunning in garden beds, pots or hanging baskets. A producer of profuse blooms that are weather tolerant and edible.
Sow into trays of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix. Cover well, as seed needs to be in darkness to germinate. Firm down, water gently and keep moist but not wet. Transplant when large enough to handle. Choose a sunny, well-drained position protected from hot afternoon sun. Remove spent blooms to prolong flowering. Flowers are edible and can be used to add colour to salads.
Plant height 15 - 20cm | Germination 21 - 28 days | Flowering 16 weeks
