Violet tricolor, moths. Probably, there is no such person who at least once would not admire this bright sensual flower. If you are looking for a beautiful garden for your garden, but at the same time unpretentious plant, then the choice is obvious - viola.

Planting and caring for a viola does not require special knowledge and skills; any gardener can cope with this task. This flower can be grown both in the open field and in pots, and in pots. The simplicity of reproduction will allow you to admire this plant for many years. So it is worth looking at the photo of the viola, picking the varieties you like and starting planting.

Viola: varieties and varieties

The genus viola has up to 500 varieties, but only a few of them are chosen for cultivation in gardens. We will dwell on these types and varieties in more detail.

• swiss giants;
• rococo;
• bambini.

Viola planting

Viola feels good both in sunny areas and in the shade. However, sun exposure and complete shading should be avoided. Try to choose a place where your flowers will be shaded for several hours a day, and the rest of the time they will bask in the sun.

Viola can be planted both by seedlings and by seeds. Seeds are sown outdoors in May. 2-3 seeds are placed in the holes, and 50-60 seeds in the furrows per meter. Gardeners do not advise deeply deepening the seeds, 0.5–0.7 cm is enough. Sprinkle on top with a thin layer of earth and water. The first shoots will not be long in coming. After a week, it is recommended to tighten the young growths with a dark film so that they do not burn in the sun. After two weeks, the film can be removed.

Viola propagates very easily by seeds

Planting seeds for seedlings is done in the same way. In February, seeds are sown in pots or boxes. Young violets dive twice. The first time as soon as the first shoots appear, the second time in 2-3 weeks. In open ground, seedlings can be planted in two months. There is no need to leave large gaps between the beds with the viola; 25 cm is enough for the free growth of the viola.

Council. If you decide to grow seedlings, then it is best to use a special ready-made substrate for violets, which can be purchased at any hardware store.

Plant care

The viola root system is located rather shallow, therefore watering of this flower should be regular. But you should not allow stagnation of water. In addition, the viola gratefully responds to loosening. For the winter, the viola is best covered. A small layer of spruce branches, peat or leaves will be enough for this.

Loosening the ground around the viola must be done carefully so as not to damage the root system.

Council. To prolong the flowering of the viola, remove wilted flowers and seed pods.

Fertilizing and feeding viola

You can start fertilizing this perennial plant by preparing the garden. In autumn, when digging, it is recommended to add humus or mineral fertilizer. Seedlings must be fertilized every two weeks with complex mineral fertilizers.

Do not use organic fertilizers to feed viola.

Adult flowers will be grateful for the superphosphate top dressing, which must be applied once a month, but manure should be avoided.

Viola propagation

To preserve varietal qualities, viola can be propagated by cuttings, since when the seeds are over-pollinated, the resulting seeds can give offspring that have lost their maternal characteristics. In addition, cuttings make it possible to rejuvenate plants that, after three years, grow too much and lose their splendor of flowering.

Viola: how the plant works

Viola can be grafted at any time of the year, even during flowering, it easily tolerates transplants. It is best to choose green shoots, on which 2-3 buds have already formed. Carefully cut cuttings are planted in a garden bed, which is best done in a shaded area. It is not worth deepening the cuttings, 0.5–1 cm will be enough. Do not forget to periodically water your seedlings, and in a month you will have ready-made planting material.

Council. When planting cuttings, you can cover them with a damp cloth or paper to avoid drying out and wilting.

Diseases and pests

Viola, which is very easy to plant and care for in the open field, will delight you with colors all summer. And in order to avoid the difficulties associated with diseases and pests, follow the simple rules of agricultural technology. The most common disease among violets is powdery mildew... It occurs with improper feeding - from an excess of nitrogen. In this case, it is necessary to treat the plant with soda mixed with soap.

Powdery mildew

In addition to powdery mildew, with an excess of moisture, you may encounter problems such as a black leg or gray rot... If these diseases are detected, immediately eliminate the diseased bushes until the fungus has spread to the entire garden.

Occasionally, the viola is more spotty, while the leaves dry up, and the plant itself weakens and dies. Such plants must be uprooted and burned, and the remaining perennials must be sprayed with Bordeaux liquid.

Caterpillar

Of the pests for viola, caterpillars are dangerous, which eat the leaves of the plant. To combat them, specialized means are used.

Viola in landscape design

Viola is very friendly and gets along well with other perennials. It goes well with and.

Small-flowered violets are most expressive when they grow in large numbers. A peculiar carpet of green leaves and small flowers of fragrant violets can be made even more spectacular by adding other early flowering crops to it. Woodplants, doronicum and tiarella are ideal.

White violets will perfectly match with red ones. Very often in landscape design, violets are decorated along with gorse and iberis.

Viola looks wonderful in the same flower bed with different plants

Various varieties of viola are used as border plantings, and ground cover is combined with ornamental shrubs and dwarf conifers. On flower beds and mixed flower beds, forget-me-nots, tulips, etc., have become constant companions of viola. The unpretentiousness of viola and the ease of growing it in pots allows you to decorate not only flower beds and gardens, but also terraces, balconies and window sills.

Viola, like all violets, is also distinguished by its medicinal properties. Its decoctions are used for laryngitis, gastritis and many other diseases. And the violet tincture itself is often drunk instead of tea, as it has a very pleasant taste and aroma.

Decorative composition with viola

Viola, as we were able to make sure, is a simple and unpretentious plant, the cultivation of which will not give you any trouble, subject to the rules of agricultural technology and minimal effort.

Types and varieties of viola: photo

Viola flowers (garden violets) are not only the well-known pansies, amusing passers-by with funny "muzzles" on the petals. In fact, the Viola genus has about 400-500 species of annuals, biennials and perennials. When choosing viola varieties for cultivation as a pot crop or an open field plant, usually choose several types. Let's talk about them in more detail.

Violet tricolor - herbaceous plant, mainly wild. Occurs in ravines, ditches, meadows with acidic or neutral soil. Viola tricolor is often called wild pansies.

The plant forms small bushes, up to 15 cm high. The leaves are rounded, pointed at the end, collected in a rosette at the base of the bush. Peduncles with small flowers (diameter up to 1.5 cm) at the ends rise from the outlet. Several shades appear in the color of flowers: white, yellow, blue, violet.

Violet tricolor differs in unpretentiousness, can grow on poor, not fertilized soils

Viola tricolor is considered an annual or biennial plant, although in fact it can "live" much longer, somewhat losing its decorative effect (this applies to almost all viols). Bloom - from April to September.

Violet tricolor is not only an ornamental, but also a medicinal plant. It is used in dried form by itself or as part of herbal preparations.

Viola horned (Viola cornuta)

Horned viola is a perennial garden violet that can be grown for many years in a row without losing its decorative effect. But! Its winter hardiness depends on the variety. Species varieties overwinter without problems, hybrids (which, as a rule, are sold in bags with seeds) in cold winter may be lost.

Viola cornuta (cornuta) has a significant difference: a slightly curved spur, 10-15 mm long, located at the back of the flower. Perennial delphiniums and aconites (wrestlers) have the same spur.

Viola horned - perennial garden violet

The flowers of the horned viola are small - up to 3-5 cm in diameter. Species specimens are colored in modest shades of lilac, blue, violet with an invariable yellow eye in the center. The hybrids are more diverse, among which there are varieties with blue, snow-white, cream, orange, yellow, red flowers. The flowers have a pleasant aroma.

Horned viola is successfully used as a potted plant, in the open field - in borders and flower beds. However, when planting, it should be remembered that the horned viola is easily pollinated with other garden violets - with tricolor viola, Vittrock's viola. The resulting hybrids may not look like mother plants, which is not always appropriate in the planned flower arrangements.

Viola horned Azure Wing (hybrid)

Viola horned varieties:

• Alba - snow white flowers
• Boughton Blue - pale blue flowers with a white eye;
• Columbine - White-purple flowers with a bright yellow eye in the center
• Etain - white and yellow flowers with a purple border

The petals are rarely monochromatic, more often colored veins, strokes, spots are clearly visible on them.

In recent years, ampelous varieties of Wittrock's viola have been bred. The lashes of such viols reach 30-40 cm, the flower is about 5 cm. Wittrock's ampelous viols are grown either in pots and hanging baskets, or as a ground cover capable of creating a flowering pillow up to 60-75 cm in diameter.

Viola Wittroca is traditionally considered a biennial. However, with early sowing (at the end of winter or early March), it blooms in the year of planting, along with other summer plants - in May-June. When sown in autumn, Vittrock's viola blooms in the second year in early spring.

There are many varieties of Wittrock's viola, some of which are grouped together. Here is some of them:

• Swiss giants are compact bushes with large flowers reaching 6-8 cm in diameter. The colors are bright, multicolored, with a traditional "eye" and a dark "butterfly" on the petals.

Of course, while waiting, you need to monitor the soil moisture and carefully loosen it without damaging the sprouts. After 9 days, shoots should appear from the seeds. And when the first leaves appear, it is time to dive. There is nothing complicated in this procedure either. The main thing is to keep a distance of 5-6 cm from each other. And all the same care: moisture, loosening the soil, nitrogen fertilizer, coolness and shade. At this stage, it is important to avoid stagnant water, as the roots can rot. As a result, a "black leg" is formed and all the cultivation is down the drain.

Late flowering plants are planted in May, while different varieties are best planted at a distance from each other if you intend to collect seeds for subsequent planting. This is done due to cross-pollination: the exchange of genetic material will lead to the fact that the purity of the variety will be compromised, and the next generation of flowers may have an unpredictable color.

1. Viola has long been considered a mysterious flower. Its second name is "Pansies". These flowers are widespread, and this amazing plant can be grown without much difficulty in your garden. Growing viola from seeds is not a very laborious process, but there are several subtleties to it.
2. If the varieties of violets Vitrokka, as well as the tricolor violet are grown as an annual plant, for the preparation of seedlings, seeds are sown in March. A temperature of 10 degrees C is sufficient for growing seedlings. Such plants bloom in early summer. If they are grown as biennials, the seeds are sown in June - July on exploratory ridges or in cold greenhouses. Seedlings appear in 2-3 weeks. Seedlings dive in 2-3 weeks, in the phase of two true leaves. In late August - early September, they are planted in a permanent place, keeping the distance between plants 15-20 cm. Young plants bloom in the second year. The transplant is well tolerated even in the flowering state.

The green tops of the shoots with 2 - 3 nodes are taken on the cuttings. After 3 - 4 weeks, about 95 - 100% of the cuttings take root. Plants obtained by cuttings in May - June bloom in summer or early autumn of the same year. With later cuttings, flowering occurs in the spring of the next year. Perennial violets are propagated by sowing fresh seeds in the fall in the ground. Seedlings appear next spring. Can be propagated by dividing the bush and cuttings. It is not recommended to cultivate more than three years without dividing, since the bushes grow strongly, lose their compactness, the size of the flowers decreases.
• The leaves are small, cordate or oblong, dark green. Recommended for scree. Propagated by division in the spring.

Due to the special structure and position of the root system of the flower, attention should be paid to caring for the plant, keeping the soil moist and loose. The fact is that the roots of the viola are only 20 centimeters deep, for this reason it is necessary to water the plant from time to time. However, in summer, if it is not dry, natural irrigation by means of rain will suffice.

This pest does not very often choose viola as an object of attack. If this still happens, then the leaves of the plant begin to turn yellow and curl, as the tick sucks out its juices.

Place the crops in a dark place and air the covered plantings every day.
