Large-flowered garden pansies are one of the first flowers that appear in our gardens. Therefore, they are associated with the coming of spring. A steadily growing number of more and more developed varieties strike with original colours. Among other advantages of these plants you will find myriads of shapes and colours, tender, velvety petals and often very nice, sweet aroma.

Large-flowered garden pansy - the blue variety with a black spot on the lower petals has just arrived in our store. This low growing, 15-20 cm tall, biennial plant can also be cultivated as annual. Small tufts with oval, frayed leaves are decorated with large, bright blue blooms with a black spot. Pansies reach from 5 to 8 cm in diameter. Five-petal flowers appear already in April, sometimes even earlier, and adorn the garden until mid-summer.

It would be hard to find more universal plants than garden pansies. You may plant them virtually everywhere. A simple flower bed will bloom in all colours of the rainbow, while an intricated edging of a lawn will add a subtle touch to a border. We might grow a colourful carpet of garden pansies in any part of a garden, provided it is a sunny place. These flowers look adorable under leaf-less trees. Combination of garden pansies with bulb plants will form a great arrangement that will bring you a lot of joy. Garden pansies fit well into rock gardens. Large-flowered blue garden pansy is also a great plant for cultivation in containers. Depending on the kind of a container we will be able to create a composition in any given style. Large, modern pots, bowls, clay pots, metal buckets, wickerwork baskets or plain balcony boxes filled with garden pansies will look simply fabulous. A sky-blue composition could adorn a balocny, terrace, windowsill or stairs. We can also spot those flowers on graveyards. Cold-resistant garden pansies make a perfect early spring decoration on tomb stones. Large-flowered blue garden pansies will enchant all lovers of this colour.

Garden pansies are undemanding, hence they grow well in most gardens. An ideal soil for these plants would be permeable, fertile and moderately moist. Clipping of the withered flowers and too long stalks prolongs the blooming time and enables upkeeping of a nice looking habit.

Easy cultivation and indisputable charm are great assets of this species. Large-flowered garden pansy is a terrific plant that is worth considering in your gardening plans.
