The native violets, the Viola species, are an often overlooked and sometimes maligned group of colorful small perennials that have a wide range in eastern North America. Although considered weeds by many, the wild violets are a vital host plant to fritillary butterflies, support pollen specialist native bees, and are an excellent ground cover.
