This is the seventh in a series of corsages / boutonnieres that I am making of this year’s flowers, grown here at our Victorian Gothic black dirt farmhouse, The Blawnut House, in the Hudson Valley in New York. I grow the flowers, photograph them, laminate them, and turn them into pins!
I am slowly trying to turn all of our lawn into violet groundcover. If you give them a little room, they take off and it’s magical.
The pin is larger than life, measuring 4 inches at it’s widest diameter. There is a double center that makes it slightly three-dimensional with a stainless steel lapel pin fastener. Each pin is signed, numbered, and dated. Collect them all.
Violets are native to the Americas and are highly adaptable to most environments. There are more than 30 species of violets in North America.
