A violet flower picture gallery with pictures of Viola, violets and pansies - the bunch with cheerful faces.

Family
You may guess that they are family, but what is the relation? Well, violets and pansies are both of the genus Viola. Let's say they are very close cousins.

African Violet and Sweet Violet
There are however plants that are called violets, that are not of the genus Viola. The obvious example is the African violet. But, the sweet violet or garden violet is of the genus Viola.

Pansy and Violet Difference
So, what is the difference between a pansy and a violet. The answer to this question is not simple. The answer from someone in the nursery trade could differ from someone belonging to a Viola society.

They are both Viola plants, but to understand the difference and confusion better you need to read some history. Click here to go to sweetviolets.net and read the different history articles of the Violet Society Journal. If you are interested in these flowers in general you will find many other interesting articles on Viola at this web site.
