Pansies on balcony 2011-01-16 003

Lovely colours there too little faces are what I call them from my childhood from my granchers garden in rows full of them.

Great to see these....always make me smile.....:o)

Thank you for your lovely comments, ladies :-)) Most years I have some Pansies or Violas flowering on my balcony.

Apart from the pots on the railings & the troughs on the floor I have 5 hanging baskets full of Pansies as well. I haven't taken any recent photos of them because they aren't very visible as yet.

Its lovely to see as they are at the beginning then when in full flower like a before and after.

They have kept a few flowers open ever since I planted them, even through the snow & ice & the terrible frosts we had during December! :-)) Who could find fault with such plucky little plants?

You could nt I alway s use to pot my little hanging pots up with them as they suffer gladly the winter and a little bit of colour through the winter like you.

That's exactly right! It will be a month or more before I can really see what's in tea baskets, until the plants become bigger but I have many photos of other years when I've grown them in baskets. I'll definitely have to do a blog on Pansies, no doubt about it! :-))

Pansypotter will love that will look forward to seeing your blog.

I was putting the titles on some of my Pansy photos today as well as on some of the crocus pics!

I shall look forward to seeing them all.
