WINTER PANSIES


A couple of weeks ago the pansies were buried under the snow and today, with a shot of fertilizer, they are heralding in spring.

If winter pansies are given a dose of fertilizer now and then again about the third week in April, they will vigorously last thru Memorial Day. I use teaspoon of water soluble fertilizer per gallon of water for the winter pansies in containers. The ones planted in the garden soil get 1 Tablespoon per gallon.
