Pansies are bright and beautiful flowers that will decorate the landscape of your garden. In the article we will share the tricks in caring for the plant.

Place

Pansies like to grow in a cool environment, but they don't like the lack of light. It is best to give preference to a slightly shaded place on the site. Note to the gardener.

You can break a flower bed next to young trees, which, with their small crown, do not yet completely cover the sunlight.

The soil

Seeds for seedlings are planted in early March. The soil most commonly used is a store-bought all-purpose potting mix mixed with a small amount of sand. If necessary, soil suitable for viola can be prepared independently.

How often should pansies be watered

Water violets sparingly. They do not like excessive moisture and can rot from it. If you water pansies every other day, and loosen the soil around them the next day, they will tolerate even the abnormal summer heat well.

Fertilizer

In order for the viola to bloom chic 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.
