Parma 'Duchess de Parme' blossoms

Hello all out there in Violet Land!I bought the parma violet "Duchess de Parme" last fall and planted out side.It survived the winter and sent its typical runners out all around.No blossoms last year.About a month ago I was checking it out and saw about 6 buds on one runner!I was soooo excited!(I have never smelled a real violet yet)I check it every day and it has these kind of bulb looking things emerging very slowly.I also noticed some spider mites on the bulbs and removed them.Can I expect some real blooms soon?I know parmas don't set seed,so they have to be buds-How can I assure they will develop so I can see and smell them FINALLY??!! Thanks all! Violetvamp from VA.
