Sorbet® XP Orange Jump Up Improved Viola

Sorbet® XP Orange Jump Up Improved is a compact, mounded horned violet for seasonal color in beds and containers. Its listed flowering periods include early spring, spring, late spring, late summer, autumn, and winter; the source describes the series as compact in heat and cold. ## Growing conditions Grow in sun or partial sun in moist, humusy, well-drained soil. Horned violets generally flower best in cooler weather and may pause during summer heat. This selection is listed at about 6–8 inches tall and wide. ## Uses Use it for bedding, borders, small containers, and seasonal ground cover. The compact, mounded habit helps it fill the front of a planting without overtaking neighboring plants. ## Maintenance Keep the root zone moist but well drained. Deadheading can encourage new buds, and cutting the plants back after a flowering flush may allow renewed bloom when cooler weather returns.
