The Confederate States of America adopted the violet as a symbol, and this pale, ghostly form — with its greyish-white flowers heavily veined in blue — captures something of that quietly dramatic character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_1x4zg_107\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e'Priceana' has a mat-forming, spreading habit, with heart-shaped leaves that create a dense green carpet of foliage. In the wild it grows in moist meadows and along shady banks, and it thrives in similar conditions in the garden — moist but well-drained soil in partial shade suits it best. Like many violas, it produces a second flush of self-pollinating flowers later in the season — small, unopening blooms that set seed without fanfare, quietly increasing the colony over time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_1x4zg_107\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant towards the front of borders or use as ground cover beneath shrubs and trees, where the spring flowers can be enjoyed to the full.
