Pansies are great for creating a beautiful corner in the garden and on the balcony.
They bloom for a very long time - from April to the end of June, and after the winter break they bloom profusely and for a long time throughout the spring, sometimes until the first hot weather.
Pansies grow in both sunny and slightly shaded areas.
Where is the best place to plant pansies
Pansies prefer to grow in cool conditions, but they do not like a lack of light.
It is best to give preference to a slightly shaded place on the site. Note to the gardener.
You can make a flowerbed next to young trees, which with their small crown do not yet completely block the sunlight.
What pansies don't like
They don't like soggy roots, so be sure to use a relatively loose, well-draining potting mix and a well-draining container.
Feed the plants regularly with a balanced liquid fertilizer every few weeks.
How to water flowers
Pansies in a pot on the balcony must be watered regularly.
The soil in the pot should always be slightly moist (not wet, as there is a risk of the roots drowning).
Do not allow the substrate to dry out completely.
How to feed pansy flowers
Viola, or as it is also called Pansy, is a very beautiful flower with colorful buds.
In order for viola to bloom beautifully and for a long time, the plant must be fed with wood ash.
Wood ash, obtained by burning pine, birch, aspen, spruce and other trees, is an effective fertilizer for plants.
