Viola cornuta, known as horned pansy[1] or horned violet, is a low-growing, clump-forming temperate evergreen perennial in the genus Viola (violet), native to the Pyrenees and the Cordillera Cantábrica of northern Spain at altitude of 1,000–2,300 metres (3,300–7,500 ft).[2] It grows to 50 cm in height and spread. It has mid-green ovate leaves with rounded teeth, and masses of delicate pale violet flowers in early summer. The flower consists of five strap-shaped petals with a slender spur.[3][4]
This plant,[5] and its white cultivar, 'Alba group',[6] have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
