Viola Bambini Mix Seeds - Irish Plants Direct
 
The Viola tricolor var. hortensis commonly known as Viola or Pansy is a delightful and versatile flowering plant that adds a burst of colour to any garden.
 
The Latin name Viola tricolor var. hortensis refers to the plant’s ancestry, with Viola meaning "violet" and tricolor indicating the plant’s tri-coloured petals.
 
The Bambini Mix variety is a charming mix of vibrant, multicoloured blooms, featuring a delightful range of shades from bright yellows and purples to whites and reds. These compact flowers are perfect for bedding, containers, and window boxes, offering a cheerful display throughout the growing season.
 
This compact, bushy plant grows to a height of 15-20 cm and thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with partial to full sun. Viola Bambini Mix is known for its early and continuous flowering, starting in spring and lasting until the first frost, providing long-lasting colour.
 
The small but abundant flowers are perfect for attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies, making them a great choice for wildlife-friendly gardens.

Water regularly to keep the soil moist, particularly during dry spells, and ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging. Regular deadheading will encourage more blooms and a tidy appearance throughout the season.
 
Sowing Instructions
 
Indoors: Sow seeds in trays or pots filled with moist, well-drained compost from January to March. Lightly press the seeds into the compost but do not cover, as they need light to germinate. Keep at a temperature of 18-21°C for optimal germination. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots or directly into the garden after the last frost.
 
Outdoors: Sow directly into prepared soil in a sunny or partially shaded spot from April to May. Lightly press seeds into the soil and keep moist until germination occurs. Thin seedlings to 15-20 cm apart once established.
 
Viola Bambini Mix is perfect for gardeners looking to add early and long-lasting colour to their garden or containers. Its compact growth habit and vibrant blooms make it a fantastic choice for smaller gardens, hanging baskets, or patio pots.
