| This photo of Viola
rostrata was taken along Elk Rock Run in the Dunbar
Valley of Southwestern Pennsylvania, during the Spring 2003 Amercan
Violet Society Field Event "Violet Wanderers" On The Dunbar Mountain. Viola
rostrata prefers broken soil with good drainage. It
is frequently found along the tops of forest road cuts. The flower
color is extremely variable. Note the predominant spur. |
