Stunning golden yellow flowers with each petal adorned with delicate black veining, ‘Tiger Eyes’ is a bushy perennial, often grown as an annual and can be used in either summer or winter bedding displays. Violas are perfectly suited this, they’re cool-season bloomers, sometimes remaining in flower throughout the winter.

How to care for Viola Tiger Eyes:

Grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots and hanging baskets for the patio Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the growing season will promote even more flowers to form.

Sowing instructions:

Sow seed into trays from late winter to early spring or in late summer. Germination should occur within 10 to 21 days (temperatures above 20°C can inhibit germination). Cover seeds completely, Violas prefer darkness to germinate and keep the growing media moist. Pot on seedlings individually and grow on in a cooler place. Plant out when roots have filled the pots or modules and young plants have been hardened off for frost resilience.
