Viola hederacea Highlight viscosum blooms in June andSometimes known as Erpetion reniforme, this is a pretty little trailing plant with small kidney shaped leaves and numerous little half white, half lilac blue flowers on erect two to three inch stems. It grows well in shady or semi shady moist soil and could be used to cascade down a slope or wall. It is hardy in the warmer zones and a greenhouse plant in the North.
