Viola tricolor hortensis ( hybrid)
Ref: http://www.ibotanika.com/type/1484/viola-tricolor-hortensis
Viola tricolor is one of many plant species containing cyclotides. These small peptides have proven to be useful in drug development due to their size and structure giving rise to high stability. One such cyclotide, vitri A, found in Viola tricolor is said to contain cytotoxic characteristics. This feature means that it could be used to treat cancers.
As its name implies, Heartsease has a long history of use in herbalism. It has been recommended, among other uses, as a treatment for epilepsy, asthma, skin diseases and eczema. It has expectorant properties, and so has been used in the treatment of chest complaints such as bronchitis and whooping cough. It is also a diuretic, leading to its use in treating rheumatism and cystitis.
Other uses
The flowers have also been used to make yellow, green and blue-green dyes, while the leaves can be used to make a chemical indicator.
