FOTD – March 29 – Sweet Violet
My mother loved the smell of violets, but I never saw a violet until we moved here. They grow wild here and most people consider them weeds. I love them. In May the entire backyard is covered with a combination of violets and dandelions — another weed I just love.

I think they are beautiful. They aren’t splashy, but they smell wonderful and they bring the bee 😀

Thank you! I think I had to lie down on the grass to get it. There was no other way to get an angle on such tiny little flowers 🌹

I love when the lawn is full of violets and dandelions. The yellow and purple are perfect. And they are BOTH weeds!

I love wildflowers. Most of my favorite flowers ARE wildflowers, though some are escapees from gardens. Not violets or dandelions, though. Both absolutely wild.

I reminds me so of my mom too. I’ve not seen any violets for a while!

They take over our entire back lawn around the middle of April.
