Violets are native to the temperate Northern Hemisphere and are also distributed in Hawaii, Australasia, and the Andes in South America. Violets typically have heart-shaped leaves, and asymmetrical flowers. Strictly, Sweet violets, Bedding Violas and Pansies are all classified as "violas". African violets have fleshy downy leaves and produce throughout the summer, five-petaled flowers, usually with a distinct eye while true violets have large to small heart shaped leaves, sometimes smooth, sometimes with varying degrees of hairiness.
