| dwarf pansies yellow, delightful, spreading cheer! correcting name violas they are still lovely! experience cheer at Rebecca's Postcard from Paradise Kay G. commented that her husband called these violas. I checked on Google, and it seems to be the correct name. Here is the site that was the most helpful to see the difference between violas and pansies. They both are members of the viola species. Nothing like learning more, even from one's mistake! So I repost these delightful little gems via ABC Wednesday! |

ReplyDeleteI've never heard of dwarf pansies, Nonnie. They almost look like yellow Johnny-Jump-Ups. Sweet.

it is, rebecca! the bird feeder and its visitors is my favorite view from here.
DeleteMy husband calls them viola...that might be the scientific name, I don't know...they look like little pansies to me! We love them too, we had a pot of them out front and the deer ate them right down!
ReplyDeleteMy sweet husband said not to worry, they would come right back...and he was right, as always!! xx (We moved them to the BACKyward, which is fenced in!)
Kay, your hubby could be right because since they look like pansies that's why I called them that!
ReplyDeleteWe call them all violas( violen) in Dutch. We have only one word for them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit.For us the V sign meant victory and peace.There was no peace for us possible without the ultimate victory.
