Matrix Jewel Mix Pansy
Viola x wittrockiana. The large-flowered Matrix series is impressive with a vast colour selection and a no-stretch habit that keeps them looking fabulous all summer, especially during the cool season. The unmatched colour is great for pots or as a punch of colour in your landscape. Grows 8” tall x 8-10” wide. Usually grown as annuals but pansies are so hardy that they will often over-winter depending on conditions. Ideal for growing in locations with short, cool seasons or for adding that splash of colour when other annuals haven’t fully opened. Low maintenance and non-stop blooming all summer long.Sow seed 8 weeks before last frost date. Prefers sun to part shade. Approx. 20 seeds/pkg.
