FAQs

Can these pansies survive winter?

Yes, the 'Coolwave' series is bred for hardiness and can provide color even during colder winter months in many climates.

How many plugs do I need for a hanging basket?

For a standard 30cm (12 inch) hanging basket, we recommend using 3 to 5 plug plants for a full, balanced look.

Do I need to pinch the plants?

While not strictly necessary, pinching back the tips can encourage bushier, more compact growth early in the season.

Are these plants perennial?

Pansies are typically grown as annuals or short-lived perennials depending on local climate conditions and soil health.

What is the best way to water them?

Water at the base of the plant to keep the foliage dry, which helps prevent fungal issues and keeps the flowers looking fresh.

Troubleshooting

Plants look wilted despite regular watering

Check if the soil is waterlogged, as poor drainage causes root rot. Ensure containers have adequate drainage holes.

Sparse flowering or leggy growth

The plants likely need more sunlight. Ensure they are positioned in a location that receives at least six hours of sun daily.

Yellowing leaves

This often indicates nutrient deficiency; apply a general-purpose liquid fertilizer to provide necessary minerals.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for year-round color variety
  • Fast establishment and growth rate
  • Ideal for trailing over container edges
  • Suitable for both beginner and experienced gardeners

Cons

  • Requires regular deadheading for continuous blooms
  • Needs consistent watering to thrive in heat
  • Limited to a 20cm height, not suitable for tall floral displays

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When your plug plants arrive, pot them up immediately into 9cm pots using a good quality compost and keep them in a frost-free, bright position to harden off. Once established, they can be transplanted to their final location. Ensure the soil remains moist but well-drained, as these plants do not tolerate waterlogging. Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season to support constant flower production. Remove faded blooms regularly to encourage the plant to direct its energy into new bud formation.
