Normally, wild violets would be up by the beginning of April. The cold weather delayed them this year. I spent an afternoon, on a sunny warm day picking wild violets. I didn't get to do this in April of 2024 (broke my foot).
You can see the process on a post here: Wild Violet Jelly

Does it taste like flowers?
We don’t have wild violets around here but I know it would make a beautiful jelly. Pics of the finished product?
Sandi, it's not so much a floral taste like Queen Anne's Lace does, but it is very good. Hard to explain. I pack the flowers in the 2 cups, and get a more vibrant color and better flavor.
Anne in the kitchen, I have linked my post with pictures of the process from the infused violet water to finished jelly on the post.
