Like all native violets, it is a host plant for fritillary butterfly caterpillars, making it an ecologically essential addition to moist naturalized gardens.

• Stemless violet with kidney-shaped leaves; blooms purple in April and May
• Thrives in moist to wet meadows, stream banks, and open woodland settings
• Attractive foliage throughout the growing season after flowers fade
• Excellent for rain gardens and moist naturalized areas
