General information about Pansy (Viola):Pansy (Viola) has been grown for centuries for its pretty flowers, which even scent lovely in a few species. There are species of Pansy which only last for one season, think the large headed winter pansies, which are sold in masses every autumn. There are also other species of Pansy which with some care will last for years, such as Horned Violet (Viola cornuta) and Sweet Violet (Viola odorata). The flowers of these species are smaller than the afore mentioned winter pansies, but therefore more in balance with the green of the plant and also better resistant against poor weather. Cut Pansy back a bit if they get a bit straggly and spoil them with some fertilizer. Taking out the seed pods will prolong the flowering season. The plant will also remain stronger. Pretty much all Pansy do well in half shade in normal soil.Early Dog Violet - Viola reichenbachiana
