Violet of a different color

A violet plant with five leaves and a white-and-light-blue flower emerges from a woodchip-covered ground.

One of the violets of a color other than purple that I collected and planted last year has bloomed. It’s mostly white with a light blue tint on the inside of its petals. This is my first success in adding color diversity to my front yard violet ground cover.

There’s two more non-purple violet plants that have sprouted leaves in my yard. If my memory serves me right, they are Canadian violets, which have white flowers. I had some in the garden of my first home, but I had to leave them behind when I moved to my current house. I can’t wait to see these violets bloom.
