Tourrettes-sur-Loup is the capital of the violet because it is the only village in France where this flower is cultivated as unique or main culture.

In autumn and winters, flowers are picked to form a bouquet of 25 stalks surrounded with leaves. In spring, when the bloom is plentiful, the flower is picked without the stalk for confectionery.

The season is enclosed by the Holiday of Violets, which takes place (according to the blooming season), on 1st or 2nd Sunday of March.
