Jennifer, this was the first year to have them in my garden and I was so surprised that they bloomed so long and non stop. They just stopped a week or so ago and I trimmed them off.I am hoping that they will reseed a little.
Pansies are pretty! I gather the wild violets (the wild version of the pansy) and make all sorts of yummy treats. I enjoy the violets in my salads. I wonder if pansies are tasty? Sherry
Hi Jennifer~~ I've always loved pansies. Their scent takes me back to circa four-years old. My mother who has never been a gardener and never wanted to be, must have had a weak moment. The pansy scent mesmerized me. I'm partial to the viola types and I love how they reseed where ever they please. They kind of take a back seat to summer's bounty but during the lean months, they really shine. Gorgeous photos. I especially like that rosy-pink colored one.
Pansies are one flower that stand up to our inhospitable weather here.After the first flush of flowers get sort of tired (after some weeks) I cut them back and new shoots and flowers come through for another smaller display.The range of colours are always fantastic.
What a beautiful collage of a lovely flower. I just love pansies! There are so many colors and "faces", aren't there? Thanks for stopping by at my blog and leaving a comment so I could track back to you and get to enjoy your pansy treat!!

I love Pansies too...your collages are very nice. I also have a lacecap hydrangea and cannot believe how large in grew in one year!!
I like them because there is so much variety whatever your docorating desire is can be met.

Beautiful collage! I love the flowers of spring - especially these. They always put on such a show! -Jackie
How wonderful, Jennifer! I mean - the flowers are beautiful, and you did a great job presenting them!
They are pretty. I always have some on my deck in the spring!!
