These are native violets that I thin out each year to prevent an impenetrable mat.
I know I've posted my favourite Altroemeria before but flowering non-stop for 10 months deserves recognition don't you think

Beautiful composition here. Love the dof and high key look. I think the composition is enhanced by how you have placed the flowers at different angles. Well done.

I think violets are so beautiful. My mother and grandmother used to always have african violets growing in the house.

Beautiful -- I have some just like these that bloomed a day or so ago. I just planted them last year, but I'm actually looking forward to them spreading out a bit!
