[North Carolina State Extension](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/viola-cornuta/common-name/horned-violet/) ## Growing conditions Choose full sun or partial shade and humusy, moist, well-drained soil. The species guide describes rapid growth and reports that flowering can decline during prolonged summer heat. ## Maintenance Keep the soil moist during establishment while allowing excess water to drain. Remove spent blooms as desired, and cut plants back after heat if you want to encourage renewed flowering in cooler weather.
