Great video! I just bought pansies for the first time and I love them. I appreciate the tips. I was watching your video at Home Depot before I bought them ❤

I've seen them with a coat of ice on the outside during winter and they bounce back beautifully !

Zone 3a, started mine outside by seed in late april, had first blooms in early July (had assumed they were summer plants) only one pansy seedling grew but produced a dozen flowers before something ate them all within a week. It gets full sun every day, water 1-2 times a day in a 5 gallon fabric pot. Back to over a dozen flowers in mid august despite the heat. Good to know they're cold tolerant, I'll start them indoors and much earlier next year <3

This really helped me. I'm growing winter pansies for the first time this year in the UK. I wasn't sure whether that pod was a new flower bud or a seed pod. Thanks for showing that.

So so helpful. I’m a new gardener and I love pansies. I brought them inside because it’s getting down to 30 tonight but it looks like I should take them back out! I also needed to learn how to prune the old flowers. Thanks so much.

Thankyou so much for this video I have learnt a lot✨💕

[jessiada]

Thank you for this information! I'm growing pansies as my first plant this spring and I'm excited to see how they do!

Do we cut the wilting flowers just for looks, or does that help them grow better, not feeding flowers that are dying?

I grew a bunch of pansies this summer from seed and now with winter here in NY, I was worried about freezing temps. but if they are safe to keep outside in temps as low as 20 degrees fahrenheit, we should be OK. I didn't realize they could tolerate down to 15 degrees. I assume frost is a problem.

Impulsively bought a pansy today, I'm super happy to have gotten your videos pop up. I live in Arizona where the heat is intense, at tips to keeping them inside while our heat gets to 110° ?
