Radiating warmth during the cooler seasons with its velvety deep burgundy-red blooms, this stunning viola creates bold dramatic displays from late winter. The wine-red petals showcase subtle intensity variations across their smooth surface, whilst bold black whisker-like lines radiate from bright golden-yellow centres, creating the classic pansy face pattern.
Viola Sorbet XP Red forms compact mounds with small toothed foliage providing attractive year-round interest. The fragrant flowers attract beneficial insects whilst delivering exceptional early season colour.
Perfect for adding a vibrant touch to borders and containers, the striking contrast between burgundy petals and glowing yellow eyes creates elegant yet cheerful displays. Plant where the delightful fragrance can be appreciated.

Pot-grown plants can be planted out or potted up into compost or well-drained, humus-rich soil that is neither frozen nor prone to waterlogging.
Keep well watered, and feed with a good, high potash fertiliser (such as Tomorite) on a regular basis. Pinching off the spent flowers will encourage more to form.
Protect young plants from slug and snail damage using environmentally friendly pellets, beer traps or alternative methods available in our slug and snail control selection.
