This is so funny, because 2 days ago I had a Facebook "memory" where I blabbed enthusiastically about fritillaries. They were poet Louis MacNeice's favorite butterfly. We planted violets solely for them, because you are right, they are the host plants for fritillary caterpillars. And so easy to grow!

I thought about you when I saw the terrible warning about Wild Violets invading one's yard.
