viola
Viola ‘Sorbet XP Morpho’ is a mound-forming perennial with small, toothed leaves and fragrant, bi-coloured flowers in shades of blue and yellow with central dark markings and veins. This prolific and free-flowering plant has a neat, uniform habit that is perfect for hanging baskets, window boxes, and containers. Best grown as a seasonal cool season annual, the plant blooms from autumn through spring, and is ideal for patio displays, cottage gardens, and alpine rockeries.
How to care for Viola Sorbet XP Morpho (Sorbet XP Series):
Pot-grown plants can be planted out or potted up into compost or well-drained, humus-rich soil that is neither frozen nor prone to waterlogging.
Keep well watered, and feed with a good, high potash fertiliser (such as Tomorite) on a regular basis. Pinching off the spent flowers will encourage more to form.
Protect young plants from slug damage using natural barriers such as coarse grit, copper bands, or other non-chemical solutions that are available in our slug and snail control selection.
