How long do pansy flowers last?

That means if you plant them in the autumn, pansies can last up to eight months, from September to April or May, providing colorful blooms for much of that time. They usually aren't very pretty in the dead of winter, but their spring blooms can be even more robust when the plants have been in the ground since fall.

Do Pansies like sun or shade?

Pansies perform best in cooler weather, and are therefore usually planted in spring or fall. They like rich, well-drained soil high in organic matter, and full sun or partial shade. (Shade is especially beneficial south of Zone 7 where the hot afternoon sun will shut down flower production.)

Do Pansy flowers come back every year?

In areas with moderate temperatures, they may come again in spring, especially if they were mulched to protect the roots. In the Pacific Northwest, pansies will often come back the next year or their prolific seedlings will provide year after year of color. ... The average pansy lifespan is only a couple of years.

Is a pansy an annual or perennial?

Are pansies an annual or a perennial? Pansies are short-lived perennials. Have you ever planted a six-pack or two for some spring color and noticed later in the season that they've disappeared? I already mentioned that they love cool weather, but they don't do well in the heat.
