Pansy

View Quick Facts Chart

One of the first harbingers of spring in the North, and one of the most popular fall and winter annuals in the South, pansies prefer cooler temperatures and should be started approximately 14-16 weeks prior to transplant. Once grown out, these spring beauties will begin to throw out those cheerful blooms that everyone looks forward to seeing. Whether grown from seed or transplants, pansies are easy to grow, are relatively disease and pest free, and are industrious bloomers for the gardener's enjoyment.
