trackback
Common blue and sweet white violets growing in the lawn. We still have a few, and also some bird’s foot violets here and there, but we lost most to the first mowing of the season. I can’t imagine why anyone would want a lawn that is just plain grass.
I love violets! Greet picture.
They are so dainty
Nice picture

PS What is a plain grass lawn?
I’m with you! Sometimes those first blooms are hard to mow. The violets are darling.
We have violets growing in our lawn as well. They are so pretty. Love your photo!
Our lawn violets are all blue with yellow faces. I love your white ones.
“Here here!” regarding the plain grass
I love violets. I also have clover in my lawn, which is wonderful. It stays green far longer than the grass does without rain.
So pretty, you’ve captured the daintiness of these flowers perfectly.
I love violets. I also love lawn daisies. Heck, even dandelions work for me.
I so agree!
The violets look so pretty springing up in the grass. They break up the unrelenting green of the lawn. Daisies too…
I so agree as well. The motto should be: Flowers abound!
Each year I have less and less lawn and a larger perennial border. In a few more years, I won’t even need the lawn mower!
Beautiful picture. I love the one purple violet amid all the white ones.
