Pansy 'Delta Pro Blotch Mix' (Viola x wittrockiana) – Blotched Mixed Bedding Plants (18 Plants in 2 x 9-Cell Trays)
Pansy Delta Pro Blotch Mix brings long-lasting colour to borders, containers and baskets, with bold flowers in a mix of rich, jewel-toned shades, each marked with a dark blotch at the centre. This garden pansy (Viola x wittrockiana) is one of the most reliable bedding plants for autumn, winter and spring colour.
The plants are compact, bushy and free-flowering, with fresh green, oval to heart-shaped leaves. They are tough in cold weather, and the winter and spring flowering types sit out frost and carry on flowering when the weather lifts.
You receive 18 plants, growing one to a cell in 2 plastic 9-cell trays, ready to plant straight into a border, window box, hanging basket or other container. Choose a spot in full sun or partial shade with well-drained, moist, fertile soil or compost.
Water regularly, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. Feed every two weeks with a balanced liquid fertiliser while the plants are growing, and remove spent flowers often to keep the blooms coming.
