DSC02263 Viola adorata

I always associate violets with Mothering Sunday, stemming from childhood. At morning service in our village, the children would queue along the aisle to receive each a little bunch of violets to give to our mothers. I think the three of us siblings helped to pick them from the wild for the Rector to use. I also associate violets with deliciously violet scent everlasting (boiled) sweets that our grandmother used to give us sometimes.

Happy Mothering Sunday
