Violets from past

Last week, I was in Bourg-La-Reine at the exactly place where hundred years ago Armand Millet cultivated sweet violets ( Thanks Nathalie, for the map )

I saw there a lot of violets growing on a lawn around buildings.

Somme buds were presents and I bring back home some plants.

This one, following, is a marvellous lilac coloured one

An other one is white with a small touch of purple on the lower petal !!!

Amazing how hundreds years later, violets are always present at this place despite the new buildings.

Best regards

Denis
