Violet Knight displays bright purple blooms and a yellow eye. With an array of tiny flowers making up a larger ball-shaped bloom, Violet Knight adds unique movement and texture to your landscape and container combinations. It is heat tolerant, incredibly fragrant, and attracts bees and butterflies, all while producing magnificent blooms all season long! 

  • 8-12 inches tall and 18-24 inches wide at maturity
  • Annual except in zones 9-11
  • Plant in part to full sun (6+ hours daily)
  • Space plants 12-18 inches apart for best results
  • Produces fragrant violet flowers from planting to hard frost
  • Maintains green foliage spring through frost
  • Great for containers, groundcover, landscapes
  • Attracts bees and butterflies
  • Heat tolerant, long blooming, fall interest, deadheading not necessary

The Eco+Grande features nutrients embedded in the container walls, which help plants grow bigger and faster throughout the season when planted in the ground. Be sure to remove the tabs from the container before planting. If you choose to plant in a container, we recommend taking the plant out of the Eco+Grande, breaking it apart, and mixing it into the soil at the time of planting. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product. Learn more about this in our blog.

Care: Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food for best performance. Prefers evenly moist soil. While plants shouldn't need to be trimmed back, you can prune to shape as desired.

The plants arrived with some of the leaves wet and rotted. After planting, they immediately died.

Sadly- I ordered 4 and they all look dead. I planted them in a pollinator garden. I’m hoping they come back in a few weeks. I’m still watering them and trying to baby them. We will see.

Beautiful plant but both died the day the day after they arrived. All of the other plants I ordered in this shipment are doing well so I just chalked it up as a fluke.

The flowers in the picture do not quite look like the flowers I purchased. Either way they're very pretty.
