Umuthi Viola Sorbet Citrus Mix (Edible Flowers) Seeds produce compact plants covered in bright yellow and orange blooms with fine contrasting edges. Petals are edible with a mild, meadow-sweet note, adding cheerful colour and a gentle flavour to salads, desserts and drinks. Best in cool weather, violas grow happily in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil and flower over a long season in beds, borders and containers.

♡ Why we love it: Petite flowers in sunny citrus tones that lift plates and pots. Reliable cool-season colour, easy care, and genuine edible petals you can pick fresh for the table.
