Annual. (Technically a Perennial grown as an Annual. Will over winter in climates as cold as USDA Zone 4.) Blooms spring to early summer and in fall, depending on when seed is sown.
Large 3" flowers with mixed shades of blue including 'Lilienstein' (blue with white on top), 'Elbaue' (light blue), 'Elbtalfreude' (middle blue), and 'Bergzauber' (deep blue). Flowers are edible and make a colorful addition to salads. Try planting in early fall for winter and spring color even in cold climates! Plant in the early spring for spring and summer bloom. Spring flowers make a nice accent for your spring bulbs. Pansies bloom best during cool weather. In the heat of summer they eventually get leggy and stretch, and must be pulled and replaced with new seedlings.
OUTDOORS: Cold climates: sow in early spring (2 - 4 weeks before last frost) or mid-summer for fall, early spring, and early summer bloom. (Plants will over winter in between bloom periods.) Warm climates: sow in late summer for fall, winter, and spring bloom.
INDOORS: Sow 10 - 12 weeks before average last spring frost for spring planting OR early summer for fall planting in both warm and cold climates.
SPECIAL GERMINATION INSTRUCTIONS: Even though easy to germinate, pansies do better with stratification, a process of subjecting seeds to moist/cold treatment to break the seeds dormancy. Indoors, sow seeds into moistened soil and place in the refrigerator or freezer for about 5 days. Seeds can then be germinated. Pansy seed also requires darkness to germinate. Make sure seeds are planted at recommended depth of 1/8".
