Hi everyone,

I have some violas growing that are purple and yellow, johnny jump-ups, and orange and purple. Also have some in a seperate border in the shade around the porch that are purple to deep dark purple or black, with just a dot of yellow in the center if any. Some have sprouted again and I'm going to put some in a pot and take them inside. I want to know if both varieties are edible and or medicinal.

Thank you!
Lorrie

I love the sweet scents wafting in the breeze. I stop to admire the vibrant colors of all living things. And people think me odd. Then ODD I am!!!
