Farquahar – See ‘Farquhar’.

Farquhar -  Farquhar, Rosslindale (Massachusetts) USA.  (1896)

A sport of ‘Marie Louise’ with slightly deeper coloured flowers, which are larger and more floriferous.  Longer stems.

Fee Jalucine – Nathalie Casbas, Villaudric, France.  (1999)

A selection from seed that was gathered from ‘Parme de Toulouse’ in Nathalie’s garden.

Feline – Nathalie Casbas, Villaudric, France.

An amazing find amongst a bed of ‘Parme de Toulouse’ on the nursery of Nathalie Casbas.  A  local cat had been observed using this particular patch as a toilet, and it was something of a surprise when the plant flowered.  The blooms were single Parma violets in a lovely lavender pink, with a white throat, and the top two petals are held upright.
