Little purple flowers with heart-shaped leaves are popping up in your lawn every spring, or you spotted a fragrant violet under a hedge. Our violet identifier names the species from a photo, returning its scientific name with a link to more details. It covers wild and garden violets such as the common blue violet, sweet violet and pansies, and helps rule out lookalikes.
How It Works
Photograph a flower from the front to show the five petals, including the lower petal with its spur, then a leaf from above. A side view helps distinguish species with or without above-ground stems. The tool returns the scientific name, which you can open on Wikipedia.
Key Benefits
- Separates true violets from ground ivy (creeping Charlie), which has square stems, scalloped leaves and a minty smell
- Tells wild violets from African violets, fuzzy-leaved houseplants that are not related to true violets
- Helps decide whether lawn violets are a weed to manage or a native wildflower worth keeping for fritillary butterflies
- Identifies sweet violet (Viola odorata), known for its scent and runners
- Free in the browser, one identification per day

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about violet identifier
Take a front-on photo of one flower and a photo of its leaf, then upload them. The tool will return the scientific name of the violet species.
Some violet flowers and leaves are traditionally eaten, but similar-looking plants can be harmful. Never eat any plant identified only by an app; confirm with an expert first.
Most wild violets bloom from early to late spring, while pansies and violas are planted for cool-season color in spring and fall. Many violets also produce hidden, self-pollinating flowers near the ground later in the season.
Creeping Charlie has square stems, small rounded scalloped leaves in pairs, and tubular flowers; crushed leaves smell like mint. Violets grow in clumps with heart-shaped leaves on long stalks.
No. African violets belong to a different family (Gesneriaceae) and grow as houseplants; true violets are in the genus Viola.
