Viola palmata, the trilobed violet, early blue violet, or wood violet (names it shares with other members of its genus), is a species of flowering plant in the family Violaceae.[1] Viola palmata is native to southeastern Canada as well as the eastern half of the United States.[2][3] Often confused with Viola triloba, V. palmata is a member of a class familiarly known as "blue stemless violets", characterized by its cleistogamous flowers on short prostrate peduncles, and often concealed under dead leaves or soil.[4]
