Common blue violet displays a delicate form with heart-shaped leaves and iconic, five-petalled flowers that exhibit a range of purple hues. It typically stands 6 to 10 inches tall (15 to 25 cm). Each vibrant flower, while ephemeral, has a unique structure with two lateral petals, a lower petal with a white center, and a pair of upper petals. This symmetrical presentation is easily recognizable. The plant is rhizomatous, suggesting it spreads underground, fostering a clumping habit.
