|discussion=<p>Dead, long-persistent stems of <i>Viola striata</i> are often present the following season. In flower, the plants are often mistaken for <i>V. canadensis</i> because the petals are whitish (H. E. Ballard 1992).</p><!--
--><p><i>Viola striata</i> reportedly hybridizes with <i>V. labradorica</i> (= V. ×eclipes H. E. Ballard), <i>V. rostrata</i> (= V. ×brauniae Grover ex Cooperrider), <i>V. walteri </i>var.<i> appalachiensis</i> (= V. ×wujekii H. E. Ballard), and <i>V. walteri </i>var.<i> walteri</i> (= V. ×cooperrideri H. E. Ballard).</p>
