Pretty little Johnny Jump Up or Violas

Yes, I bought the plant early this spring.  I forgot to water it after I set it out in our clay soil..it kind of died down to the ground.  I had such hopes that it would seed and spread.  Well, after a rough go, it has come back and made a small pretty little plant.  But you know, I don't see any seed pods...So far, all the dying blooms are seedless.  What gives?  Maybe with time.

I love the color combination.  There are so many color combinations of this small pansy that this little fellow will fit into any flower garden.  To see some other colors, check out this link.
