Viola obtusa is a
perennial herb found in sunny grasslands in fields and mountains,
with short white hairs all over. Leaves, both radical ones and the
other ones on the stems, are concentric, 1.5-3cm long. Flowers, with
1.2-1.5cm-long petals, are dark red-purple, with distinctive white
portions in the centers. The height measures 10-20cm around bloom
time, but they grow to approximately 30cm when they make
fruit. Bloom time: March-May. |
