Exactly what I wanted to know and hear, that they can make it through summer with some extra TLC. Great video! Thanks!

Ahh...this was indeed helpful for us novices! I always thought dead-heading was for the "dead" flowers only. Interesting to see you can cut them down along the stem and not just pull off the head. Great video!

In late summer or fall I let them go to seed and the next spring i get tones of new violas and even different varieties that I have never even planted!

This is the best plant video I have seen in a while. Comprehensive. Completely answered my search question and I especially enjoyed the saving time tip: remove all flower heads a week before wanting a good pansy show. Thanks.

Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed the video... my routine with the pansies is deadhead every Sunday... by mid Eason onward the plants are bushy and LOADED with blooms... it can get time consuming... so I usually continue with just a handful of my favorite Pansy plants for the summer

Thank you! Finally a video that makes perfect sense for a novice.

I love Pansies..Love to cross pollinate my own version by harvesting my seeds and planting them the next year.

very helpfull video , ive just planted some and looking forward to the flowers , also so nice to be able to watch and learn from a video without annoying music in the background

How I have I never learned this??!! Violas and pansies are and have always been my favorite flower. Until now...I had no idea this was how to better care for them. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!

I look forward to hearing back how it worked for you 😀 it's something you need to keep up with... pansies and viola really don't like the summer heat... BUT if you are diligent with deadheading they can thrive all summer... but if you miss a week they can set seed and yellow quick... I usually pick a few to make a project... but let the others complete their life cycle

Great informative video that showed me how to encourage petunias. I am new to growing them and excited to know some tips!

Thank you. You are first video that actually shows close ups and meaningful detailed explanations. Very helpful.

I experimented with pansies this year by planting them directly into garden soil without compost or mulch. They did OK in the first week but gradually got worse as the soil dried out despite me spot watering them every evening. Yet after recent rain they sprung up back to life, revitalized -- which seems to show how important mulch is in retaining moisture and regulating temperature.

Just bought some and I didn't have good luck last year. This will help me a whole lot. Thanks for your info and posting.

Thanks for the info :) Pansies (and violas) are one of my favorite flowers, so I've actually just purchased a variety of pansy/viola seeds. I already have a few violas and pansies, and my absolute favorite is my viola columbine. It's a perennial and has very beautiful pastel purple and white colored flowers.

you can certainly try. it might make the bloom season longer... perennials and annuals have different life cycles.

Pansies are for spring and fall here in zone 5. They can take the cooler temperatures of early spring and late fall. They are not intended for summer use here. When my summer annuals look tired and leggy at the end of summer, I replace them with Pansies. The local nurseries only sell them in the spring and fall.

very good video, I love these and see I can put them here and there in my garden for the whole season.

Flowers are so beautiful! I like purple flowers,

We always have pansies in our garden, so I will do this from now on. Thank you!

Awesome Video! I’m a beginner with flowers. This helped me tremendously

So just like caring for petunias. This is my first year (2022) with pansies, the cool wave ones at that. I first discovered the wave pansies on the internet, but they are not readily available in my area. I found a greenhouse that only did three flats, but they are REALLY expensive ($4.19 for a single plant in a 3 1/2" pot). I am going to propagate a few cuttings. I mostly do petunias and what they are charging is highway robbery. If my propagation is successful, then in (2023) I will do propagation to save money.

Great information - thank you! Showing which ones and how to remove helped this novice immensely. 🌷👍😃

First time I tried Pansies in my high altitude Colorado climate was last Summer. At first my results were sluggish...then I watched your tutorial and they started to perk right up, giving me a nice show till Autumn. Just put in my 2014 plants (Delta Reds and Delta Oranges) and I'm looking so forward to the results! Thanks for teaching!

Mary Weintz As the summer gets warmer you'll need to water these very often as well.. they will not like to become completely dry for long periods.

Yes if you put the seeds on a damp paper towel in a ziploc bag in the fridge for 6-8 weeks that should break the dormancy

Thank you! I just bought a flat of pansies and started thinking they would only last through June. I appreciate your education!

Thank you. I will try this out today.

Very helpful video - thank you.

True. You don't need to deadhead cascading (wave, supertunia) petunias but they also benefit from cutting back as they tend to get long and lanky.

This is soooo helpful! Thanks for taking the time to post this video. I received many compliments on my very simple pansies...they were truly beautiful for such an easy-going flower. Then all of a sudden the stems got "leggy" - a new gardening term for me. Hopefully I'll be able to return these flowers to their earlier glory. I will definitely subscribe to your channel and view more of your videos.

Thank you. Your videos on plant care are very helpful!

Thank you, I love pansies but got discouraged because mine always got leggy, now I know how to keep them looking nice

Thank you for watching :)

Thank you

Great camera/voice working together

Good video! I've always deadheaded somewhat but after watching your video I had to go out & do it correctly. I always get impatient with them when they get leggy & prune dramatically & it always ends up killing them.

Great video, thanks

Thanks Bill. I don't know about you, but I am always reluctant to cut back the pansies, since I've placed so much care and effort into growing - but I will need to cut back and as you say it will grow back and be much healthier. My window boxes at the front of the house have a yellow theme - and I adore the violas, indeed like happy faces. And then my hanging basket with the petunias, that since watching your video, have proved to be so so healthy since cutting back and producing so many flowers - I will certainly be very reluctant to cut that one back - ha ha!! I went to a gardening class many years ago and suppose that sparked my interest in making pot plants and window boxes. Just another thing Bill, Ireland gets it fair share of rain - however, I still water the plants as am sure there is not suffice rain water getting into the plants - I refer to the hanging basket here? Do you agree? You take care.. Enjoy your weekend.

Oh yes you need to water your pots. you are doing the right thing :) the water doesn't really seem to get into the pots when it rains and you need to get in there after and top it up :) if you are nervous about cutting back your pansies might I suggest you prune one branch or stem back each week. this way your plant slowly bushes out and you don't loose out on any blooms... I use this method most frequently...

thanks for making this video

thanks alot

Thank you so much. Can you prune the old dying leaves too?

Can you reuse the seeds to grow more plants? Same with petunia's? I love pansies and thanks to your video I am going to go clean them up. They are really leggy. Do they want sun or shade? Mine are mostly in the shade. Thank you for your video!

es muy hermoso.

thanks love this video

I am at my witts end trying to figure out what is eating my moat expensive pansies in my planters with solar lights in them. Instead of the typical $2.50 or $3 for a flat of 6 small ones I finally found the exact shade of mauve/lavender/white white with bigger flowers that my grandmother kept going for many years by moving them into her sun room. I paid $5 per plant which doesn't sound like much but I have 10 of them. They were GORGEOUS for a week & then something began nibbling the flower petals & over the course of 3 days it takes a new bloom from beautiful to petals completely gone. I keep them covered in DE & I have coarsely crushed egg shells that I sprinkle in the pots & onto the plants themselves. I've also resorted to critter control granules with cloves etc in them. They smell lovely to us wafting through the window but the rabbits & squirrels don't like them. We do have sparrows but these planters are visible from our living room & I never have birds in them.

excellent video. Thanks

Many pansies need a cold period for the seeds to sprout.. however that said, i'm sure that some species of viola would grow fairly well for you... i would try them if you have a cooler season first... I'm sure you never see cold like me.. what are your average temps?

Apologies Will for jumping back in time. I have a bunch of Volunteer Johnny Jump Ups throughout my landscape. In the lawn, some plots, even between the paving stones. Should I transplant them into my planter or pot them up and store in the garage? Not sure what to do...are they perennial or just self sowing and pop up every year? I would appreciate your help.

All season long? Not in my zone 8a garden in Norfolk, VA. I do exactly what you do in part/full shade, and they fizzle out by the first of June

Oh I want more pansy. Well they expand from rooting? Thanks again

Suscribed! Great video. I'd like to know if it's necessary to stratify Pansies seeds ?

Is that seed fully formed? I'm wondering because I always dead head mine, but would like to keep some seeds. Can I keep those from the dead heads to replant?
