	You Grow Girl \| Featured Plant :: Viola/Pansy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Pansies and violas are plants I often associate with the Victorian Era; lace and tea in the parlor, and turn-of-the-century advertising illustrations of pansy posies with a child’s head in the centre.
		Both the viola and the pansy are members of the genus violaceae, and of the violet family.
		Pansies and violas are perennial plants but are often treated as biennials or annuals depending on the climate they are grown in.

		Violas arose later than pansies as a result of crossbreeding between the garden pansy and other species of viola, giving rise to some quite significant and distinctive differences.
		Viola flowers are also smaller and even though the ‘blotch’ markings of pansies may be found in some species, it is not common and therefore not regarded as a characteristic of violas.
		Violas can also make a terrific foil for that special garden ornament you may have tucked away in a secluded part of your garden or for edging around a natural style pond.

	Violet (plant) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Violets (Viola) are a genus of flowering plants in the family Violaceae, with around 400-500 species throughout the world, mainly in the temperate Northern Hemisphere but also in Hawaii, Australasia, and the Andes in South America.
		Most violets are small perennial plants, but a few are annual plants and some are small shrubs.
		One quirk of some violets is the elusive scent of their flowers; along with terpenes, a major component of the scent is a ketone compound called ionone, which temporarily desensitises the receptors in the nose; this prevents any further scent from being detected from the flower.
