Viola
Speaking of Viola, I am trying to grow V. verecunda v. yakusimana. I can find
it on the Web, but my question is, exactly what makes violets produce cleistogamous flowers? I know they occur during the summer, but I would like to know more about the mechanism, to see if I can encourage the production of complete open flowers. (For those who haven't met it, it is the world's smallest violet & a bonsai companion, but very temperamental.) Iris, Central NY, Zone 5a, Sunset Zone 40 "If we see light at the end of the tunnel, It's the light of the oncoming train." Robert Lowell (1917-1977) |
