This perennial makes a lovely ground cover with its broad mat of dark purplish foliage and deep violet purple flowers. Grows in moist but well-drained soil, well suited to woodland, banks or wild gardens where it spreads by self-seeding and creeping stems.
Requires very little care or maintenance. Violet flowers and leaves are edible with the leaves containing high levels of vitamin A and C. They can be used in salads or cooked as greens.
Height: 10 cms Spread: 20 cms over time
