My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Parma violets blooming...

10 years ago

The very mild weather we've been having this year has allowed me to keep my Parma violets outdoors longer than is usual. Hence, they have flowered heavier than other years. I've actually been able to pick small bouquets of 25-30 blooms to enjoy indoors. What a heavenly scent!!

    Maggie.... I bought mine from Select Seeds. I believe they were 6.99-7.99 per pot. When I received them I potted them into 7" terra cotta pots... Grew them outdoors in morning sun/afternoon shade and they flowered quite well that fall. Check out their website at selectseeds.com..... I see they are offering three varieties this year. You could probably grow them outdoors year round in Vancouver. Here in Wisconsin I need to bring them indoors in late fall and grow them under lights or on my three season porch if the temps aren't too cold.
