I'm 3 years late seeing this...haha! It popped up because I just got some beautiful Violas and was researching how to take care of them. Of course you guys would pop up! I didn't realize they needed more water than I've been giving them. I will keep more of an eye on that. I'm keeping them in a container for the reasons you mentioned. I want to be able to relocate them if needed since our summers keep getting hotter and our UV has been very high. Even our shady spots get really hot, and I'm only in 8b! I wish I could sit with you two and ask questions about my plants all day! haha! I just love the science of everything. One day I hope to join one of your live streams. Everytime I get a notification, I'm at work. Anyway, as usual, thank you for the awesome videos!
Hey Amanda! Thank you for saying that and we just hope our videos are helpful. 😉😀 Sounds like a lot of good thought going into your violas and relocating them. You can always email us with any questions you have and we will do our best to help you in your garden: seanandallison@spokengarden.com . 👍👍 Oh, sorry our Lives are during your work time, but VERY happy you tune afterwards! Thank you for your kind words. 🙏😀😁
I have a fairly new lime green / yellow variegated euronymous shrub. To my delight in mid summer, violas started peeking out from around and under it. They spread on their own from a planting years ago. The purple contrast against the Euronymous colour was a delightful surprise😃
Hi Jacquelyn! 👋 Wow, that's great! 😃 Our pansies have spread in different areas of our yard too and we love it! So happy yours are bringing you joy and you have that contrast with your euonymous shrub. Fun! Thank you for watching and commenting! 😉👍
Enjoy your videos. The videos are so informative and to the point. Also enjoy watching a plant geek couple . 💕 Not as enthused about tools like Sean but I learn a lot.
Hi strohme53! 👋 Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching! Our whole goal is to be helpful and we're definitely plant geeks! And, not sure too many others could be as enthused about new tools as Sean is. 🤣
Hi Gang when deadheading Viola's how can you tell if the flower bud is going to seed or pushing out a new bud/bloom.They appear pretty close in resemblance and I'll pop them all to make sure.THANX.Oh and the pansies appear as a butterfly taking off and the Viola is more symmetrical/uniform - IMO
This is an awesome video! I was wondering if you had some tips on harvesting the flowers themselves? Should you just pick off the flower, or take out the whole stem?
I had violas in a large container along with dianthus, coral bells, creeping jenny and some basil. The violas now are dried up, due to hot weather and not enough water. I'm thinking of planting them in the ground to see if they'll come back. Think that will work?
Hello, I left my pansies and violas and they got frostbite. I'm so sad, and they're still green I watered them and bought them inside, please can you let me know aftercare frost bite process? They looked dropped and they took a hit. Please reply thanks🙏
I live in Denver. Will the viola come up even after a winter of snow. Is it better to plant in the ground or a pot? I want them to come back every year.
Hi guys, love the content of your videos, very helpful. Just one criticism though, when you're editing and you cut to one section to another, it doesn't flow, it makes it look as though the video is jumping. Sorry, just an observation.
I had my violas in a strawberry pot last year and they jumped out and are now also in my front flower beds😃

These johnny jump ups are my favorite. I have grown them since 1980. 😄
Hi Barb! 👋 Oh, that's great! They are fun to have. Wow, you have lots of experience and fun with these then. 👍😉 Thank you for watching and commenting!

can you grow violas and pansies in the same soil?

Hi Tracy. Editing can be tricky sometimes. Thanks for watching and the compliment on our content.
My violas is wilting. I water it daily and it wilts. Then comes back looking nice. What is happening?
Too much water.
Tou h sun? Or it gets to hot. They like speckled sun or shade in the hot part of the day.
