Helping Your Pansies Last Longer




Helping your Pansies Last a Bit Longer


Pansies like the cool temperatures, but they do look beautiful in the spring.  Here are a few tips to help them last a bit longer: 

1.        Cut them back 1 or 2 inches when you notice that they are getting leggy.  Deadhead as needed. 

2.       Don’t over fertilize.

3.       Provide a little shade.  If your pansies are in containers, move to a part shady area.  

4.       Pull them out and replace them with warm weather annuals when the weather reaches about 80 degrees.
