Viola cornuta 'Endurio Mixed' F1 HybridHorned Violet, Horned Pansy The best winter flowering Viola!

This delightful mixture of seven distinct colours will enhance semi-trailing plants tumbling over the sides of baskets or containers or can be grown as an effective ground cover in borders. Unlike their larger cousins Endurio will keep on flowering throughout the winter whatever the weather!
