Violas – Sorbet

Sunny, cheerful, and packed with blooms—Sorbet Viola ‘Honeybee’ lights up cool seasons with warm honey-gold and butter-yellow flowers kissed with soft whiskers. The Sorbet series is bred for tight, uniform mounds and nonstop flowering in cool, wet, or fickle winter weather, making it a reliable choice for Middle Georgia from fall through early spring. Choose flats for economical mass plantings that quickly knit into a golden carpet along borders, walkways, and curb-appeal beds; choose 4" pots for fuller plants that establish fast and deliver instant pop in porch planters, window boxes, and entry accents. Compact and tidy—about 4–6" tall and 8–12" wide—‘Honeybee’ thrives in full sun to part sun (morning sun with a touch of afternoon shade is ideal in the South). Plant in well-drained soil, keep evenly moist (never soggy), and feed lightly every few weeks for continuous color. Many Sorbet blooms are self-cleaning, so maintenance stays minimal; a quick pinch now and then keeps plants extra tidy. Pair ‘Honeybee’ with ornamental cabbage & kale, dusty miller, alyssum, dianthus, pansies, and trailing ivy for porch-ready combos that glow all season. Grown locally by Ware Greenhouses, Sorbet Viola ‘Honeybee’ is your go-to for warm, welcoming winter color in flats and 4" pots.
