Substratum: soil. Comment: Viola pyrenaica is a beautiful, rare alpine violet. In Austria north of us it is considered rare to very rare (Ref.:3), it has not yet been found west of Slovenia in Friuli Venezia Guilia, Italy (Ref.:6) and at the beginning of this century it was known only from a single UTM 10 km sub-square in Slovenia (Ref.:7). Yet, during last decade several new finds have occurred. Still, each new find is a joyful event, particularly if it happens, so to say, in front of your own house.
