| This photo of
Viola rostrata was taken
along Elk Rock Run in the Dunbar Valley
of Southwestern Pennsylvania, during
the Spring 2003 Amercan Violet Society
Field Event "Violet Wanderers" On The
Dunbar Mountain. Viola
rostrata prefers broken soil
with good drainage. It is frequently
found along the tops of forest road
cuts. The flower color is extremely
variable. Note the predominant spur.
