In méxico we call them “Pensamientos” or thoughts, they’re my favorite flower. I think they’re some variety of Violas.

Violas, yes, and they have SUCH great common names – my mom called them Johnny-jump-ups, a friend refers to them as hearts-ease, they have a bunch of silly ones, it’s delightful. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viola_tricolor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viola_tricolor)

Violas. I have so many of them in my backyard. The first owners planted them in the 1960s and they come back every year.

[Viola tricolor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viola_tricolor), and I would’ve thought violets/pansies were at *least* as recognizable as orchids.
