When I was a child we called these flowers “Cat Faces”…the purple was the ears, the yellow was the nose and mouth with the purple at the bottom his tongue.
OK so maybe we were weird but maybe we had good imaginations.
I love your imagination, Ellen !!

Ellen ~ I’ve never heard these called cats faces. Thanks for that tidbit. My grandma always called her tri-color pansies smiley faces.
As long as I’ve been able to remember we have called these Johnny Jump Ups, I just looked them up and these are some other names for this flower.
Viola tricolor, known as heartsease, heart’s ease, heart’s delight, tickle-my-fancy, Jack-jump-up-and-kiss-me, come-and-cuddle-me, three faces in a hood, or love-in-idleness, is a common European wild flower, growing as an annual or short-lived perennial.
My sister often garnishes her salads with a blossom or two. They are edible.
Angi ~ I always enjoy your picture a day posts even if it sometimes takes me quite a while to visit them. You had an awesome picture of tree roots a while back. Thank you for featuring Rick’s photos.
