How to successfully grow pansies from seed

I wanted to do a series of video resources to help ensure you have the best chance of success when growing your pansies and violas from seed. I know it can be intimidating if you have never done it before, and pansy seed can be hard to germinate if you don’t follow a few key steps. Poor germination rates are very often due to issues around moisture and temperature. This brief video covers how I have achieved the best germination rates possible, year after year.

I hope that between my book and these videos, you will feel very confident sowing pansies from seed every season from here on out.

Please feel welcome to send any questions or comments my way. I’m so glad you are here.
