Description
Wooly Blue Violet is a striking addition to Massachusetts gardens, showcasing delicate lilac-purple flowers from early spring to mid-summer. Its heart-shaped, tomentose leaves remain lush green throughout the season, while the vibrant brick-red stems add unique visual interest. This hardy perennial thrives in naturalized areas, woodland gardens, and as border edging, creating a soft yet vibrant display. Its fine-textured foliage makes it stand out among other ground covers, adding charm and character to shaded landscapes.
While Wooly Blue Violet enhances garden beauty, it requires regular maintenance due to its self-seeding nature. Pruning should be done after flowering to preserve the current season’s blooms. Fortunately, deer tend to leave this plant alone, making it a reliable choice for low-wildlife interference gardens. Ideal for mass planting, border edges, and woodland gardens, Wooly Blue Violet is a perfect perennial for those looking to introduce long-lasting color to Massachusetts landscapes.
