Purple Pansy in Garden

Pansies are such hardy little plants. And they come in a large variety and color to choose from.

The pansy can be either annual or perennial, however, gardeners treat this plant as an annual because it prefers cool weather and gets too leggy in summers. There hasn’t been much success producing heat-tolerant pansies that can survive hot weather.

However, pansies are surprisingly hearty in cold weather. They’ll survive a frost (even a hard freeze). Even if the blooms withers in the cold, the plants will often stay alive.
