Viola cornuta apricot selection


Perennial Pansy

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.550.120


Also known as Winter Pansies, these are hardier than regular bedding pansies, tolerating more winter cold and summer heat. Plants form a low, bushy mound of bright green leaves, with loads of fragrant miniature pansy flowers from early spring to late fall, all winter in milder regions. Trim back in early summer to promote fresh growth. Excellent for massing, edging, rock gardens and in mixed containers. This strain produces blossoms in a wonderful glowing apricot-orange shade. All pansies are short-lived perennials, usually lasting a couple of seasons.
