Description
Frizzle Sizzle Mini Tapestry Pansies. Will tolerate a light frost. Sun/Partial Shade.
PLANT SPACING: 6-9".
HARVEST: Edible flowers - fully open. Cut flowers - stems are long and at least one bloom per stem is open. Deadheading encourages continuous blooms.
SOIL REQUIREMENTS: Rich, well-drained soil.
1 1/2" wide blooms of lavender, cream, rose, purple, plum, and gold. Productive, healthy plants. Bloom size is slightly smaller than other Frizzle Sizzle Series colors, but the overall look of the plants is comparable. Mildly fragrant. Overwinters well in our unheated tunnel (Zone 5); plants are generally compact but yield 12–14" stems that are perfect for mixing with other flowers in bouquets. Also known as viola, Johnny jump-up, European field pansy, heart's ease, and hybrid violet.
Edible Flowers: Decorative and edible garnish for salads and desserts with slight wintergreen flavor. While a popular choice for brightening up salad mix, the flowers are also good for candying.
Grown in MA.
