Large Violet Wishbone Flower is a spreading annual with toothed green foliage noted for its larger two-lipped violet flowers that bloom from summer until frost. Grows best with good indirect sun in consistently moist well-drained fertile soils. Excellent for containers or as a houseplant. Container plants can be brought indoors for a winter bloom. The Summer Wave series has a stronger bloom and is self-cleaning.
