These entrancing nostalgic flowers are especially beautiful, with ruffled blossoms and luscious velvety petals. They bloom in unusually deep rich shades of mahogany, ivory, gold, purple and lilac, many with intricate markings and color patterns. Victorian Posy plants are taller than modern pansy varieties and their romantic flowers are perfect to dance and glow in windowboxes and containers or cast their special allure at the front of garden borders.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS

Perennial­ Grown as Annual

Spring bloom.

Can handle frost.

Best to Start Indoors

In Mild Winter Climates, start seeds in late summer to have plants large enough to successfully overwinter and bloom in early spring.

In Cold Winter Climates, start early indoors about 2½ months before last spring frost. Sow seeds in a container of seed starting mix 1 inch apart and cover very lightly. Keep evenly moist and cool 55-60°(13-16°C), providing a strong light source. When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant 2 inches apart into a deeper container(s) and grow to 2 to 3 inches tall. Gradually acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions before transplanting 4 to 5 inches apart in a sunny spot.

Thin or Transplant

Space the seedlings 4 to 5 inches apart.

Growing Notes

Pansies will bloom longest and make largest flowers when weather is cool. In mild winter areas, late summer sowings will begin to bloom in very early spring or even late winter. Keep faded blossoms removed to prolong flowering.
