Did you know…
that pansies are edible? That’s right! You can eat them in salads (or whatever you desire). To add some beautiful color and a slightly minty flavor to your next recipe, chop them up and make it unique and full of taste.
HOW TO CARE FOR PANSIES
Pansies are beautiful heart-shaped flowers that can add color to your garden beds, ground cover, or beautiful pots. Follow these easy instructions below to keep them thriving all season long:
Where
Plant in full or partial sun and your pansies will thrive.
When and How
Pansies do not like heat, so plant when the temperatures start to cool down. If local to North Carolina, we recommend planting your pansies in the Fall so that you can enjoy them all Autumn, Winter, and Spring! (If planting in beds, place them 7-12 inches apart to allow for room to spread)
Soil
Plant in moist, well draining soil.
Watering
Water only a few times a week because too much can drown them and cause root rot.
Pruning
Remove any dead blooms and cut them back regularly before they become “leggy”. This helps to keep them healthy and full of vibrant blooms.

Landscaping Inspiration
Mums aren’t just for pots, and are actually a great way to add color and depth to your landscaping. Head over to this blog post to read more about them. We recommend bordering your fences, driveways, or house with these beauties to instantly add some Fall curb appeal.
Ornamental cabbages are versatile and have a TON of landscaping design options, as seen below. These can be combined with a huge variety of plants, and you can even place a few pumpkins in there to add some fun Fall touches.
Pansies are another wonderful option that provides you with vibrant colors and never ending blooms. They’re also super easy to maintain and only need a trimming every now and again. How gorgeous are these landscaping jobs viewed below?!
And of course, you don’t have to stop at just one option. You can easily combine all three of these options to make your house the prettiest landscaped home in the entire neighborhood. Here’s a few examples that are sure to provide you with the ultimate yard envy:
Front Porch Inspiration
Front porches are also a great way to add curb appeal and provide you with warmth and gratitude for these wonderful plants. Whether filling your window boxes or lining your steps with potted mums, ornamental cabbages, and pansies, any of these options would be a great way to fill your home with Fall.
