tough viola

This viola is a trouper, only one out of 24 that looks decent, the rest are either gone or suffering badly from slug damage and just starting to bush out/bud again.

That one is doing better than the whole of mine! do you know if they are supposed to flower the same year theyre sown because mine are kind of just stuck at the same size as when i potted them up from prop.!? :o)

Mine are all in containers now and romping away x have you been pinching them out? I nipped all mine back when I moved them and they have doubled in size and loads of flowers, I ruthlessly dead head them every few days and got loads of buds. Just took some pics that I will upload laterxxxx I bought mine from the green grocers in main street, nothing I tried from seed this year to date has amounted to anything x
