So cheerful and eye catching. Probably the most well-known and popular variety. The tri-coloured flowers in purple, yellow and white grow on small plants growing 10-30cm tall. So versatile in its positioning as it suits shady areas, borders, beds, interplantation with spring bulbs, containers, baskets and rockeries. Happily self-seeds and is a delight for your guests when you add the edible flowers to your summer salads. Perennial. Download sowing guide
