Pansies are highly popular garden flowers celebrated for their vibrant colors and distinctive “faces”. A hybrid of the wild heartsease, they are prized for their extreme cold-hardiness and ability to bloom in early spring,

• Flowers: Each flower typically has five overlapping velvety petals. They are classified into three main patterns: blotched (featuring a dark, contrasting central “face”), whiskered (thin dark lines radiating from the center), and clear-faced (solid, uniform color).
• Color Range: They offer one of the broadest color palettes in the garden, including deep purple, royal blue, bright yellow, orange, red, pink, white, and even near-black.
• Foliage: The plants typically grow as compact mounds 6–12 inches tall with heart-shaped or oval green leaves.
