Giant Pansy (Viola x Wittrockiana Swiss Giant Claret) - Start Pansy seeds for one of the best annuals for fall! Pansies can be considered biennial or even perennial in the right climate, but typically they are grown as annuals. They prefer the cool temperatures of fall and spring, and they mix well with spring bulbs to add lots of color and variety in the early garden. Establish this giant Pansy by sowing Pansy seeds and enjoy the rich wine red color of the 3 - 4 inch bloom. Pansy care includes deadheading the spent flowers to prolong the bloom season. Pansy flowers will self-sow their own flower seed. Deadheading will also prevent the spread of Pansies if this is not desired. Protect the Pansy plants from coldest weather with a light mulch.
