Viola

Lonicera 'Viola' – a perennial shrub from the Solanaceae family, which attracts gardeners with its hardiness and high resistance to diseases and pests. The plant adapts quickly to various soil types and climatic conditions, and seedlings begin to bear fruit already in the second year after planting.

Bright purple 'Viola' berries ripen early – in late May – and have a sweet taste with a slight acidity. Thanks to this, they are ideal for fresh consumption, as well as for canning, freezing, and making desserts; with proper storage, they retain all beneficial properties.

The shrub is distinguished by its longevity: in favorable conditions, it can live from 25 to 30 years. For successful cultivation, moderate watering, good drainage, and frequent fertilization are required. Bright flowers of different shades make the plant a popular choice for decorating gardens and balconies.
