Johnnie Jump - Ups?


So our garden has a lot of these little violets - one time I told Mom I was pulling them out as they had seeded in excess. She pleaded with me to not - "They are so sweet" - so now I dig around them and transplant them all over. What do you ladies call these little flowers?

I call them violets, but my mother used to call them Johhny Jump-ups. They are so pretty!

Here in Sask. we call them Johnny Jump-ups also. I weed some and keep some, can't bring myself to take them all out, but they do spread.
