Our featured flower of the month is the Pansy (viola x wittrockiana). Gardeners have grown and admired pansies for decades. They are my personal favorite flower for boarders and pots. Its versatility allows the pansy to flourish in full sun or partial shade. One plant is capable of doubling its size in height and can spread up to two feet in length. The often fragrant blooms are about two inches in diameter and are surprisingly durable. I suggest starting seeds at the end of winter for blooms that should last throughout summer. Cheers
