    Customer photo review of Pansy Seeds - Swiss Giants Mix

    This past year was my first time growing pansies, and I was delighted with the results. The seeds were easy to germinate in seed trays and transplanted beautifully into pots and hanging baskets. The colors were varied—- all quite beautiful. The only challenge I encountered were aphids that eventually found my plants and over fertilizing (my own fault), which caused some burn. Highly recommend these.

    I was gifted 1 packet of seeds and started these in my garage under a growlight and Jiffy potting mix. I had great germination. I would've used all my seeds had I known how pretty these would be. I planted them NE side of house in raised bed on drip irrigation, in a terracotta pot, in flower beds (N and West side of home). They are great everywhere you stick 'em but are best in groupings in front row or near front of beds. I have them in front of boxwoods, daylilies and connifers. Zone 6a. Great to share with friends for their gardens. I will be trying more varieties for 2024.
