Part of the Penny series, this early-flowering selection has a tightly branched habit and a strong root system that supports reliable cool-season performance. Plant in humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil in full sun to part shade, providing afternoon shade in warmer gardens. Regular watering and removal of faded blooms help keep the display attractive; flowering may slow during summer heat and return as temperatures cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort-lived perennial, commonly grown as a cool-season annual or biennial; compact, mounding habit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear blue flowers approximately 1 inch across\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEarly flowering with abundant spring and fall color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong root system and good overwintering performance when established\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent for border edging, mixed containers, and seasonal bedding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrefers moist, well-drained soil; deadhead to encourage continued flowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 4–6 inches | Spread: 4–6 inches\u003cbr\u003eExposure: Full sun to part shade | Water: Regular; keep evenly moist, not waterlogged\u003cbr\u003eBloom time: Spring and fall; longer in cool weather | Bloom color: Clear blue\u003cbr\u003eUSDA Hardiness Zone: 4-9\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Russian River Rootworks ","offers":[{"title":"4\"","offer_id":48317314465846,"sku":null,"price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/4693\/0486\/files\/VIOPEB4.jpg?v=1793038263","url":"https:\/\/russianriverrootworks.com\/products\/viola-cornuta-penny-blue-horned-violet","provider":"Russian River Rootworks ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
