This study was conducted to determine correlation and combining abilities of plant height, plant width, number of leaves, fresh weight, days to flowering, peduncle length, flower diameter, and number of flowers in 21 F1 crosses made from the partial seven-parent diallel cross in Viola tricolor. The plant height showed highly positive correlations with plant width, fresh weight, and peduncle length.
