Key benefits

  • Clean single-colour blooms with a small golden eye
  • Purple, lavender blue, yellow, white and velvety red
  • Edible flowers for biscuits, salads and ice cubes
  • Compact plants 15 to 20 cm tall for window boxes and pots
  • Packet of about 150 seeds with growing instructions

Clear Crystals is the pansy for anyone who prefers pure colour: each bloom is one clean shade with no dark blotch, just a small golden eye. Viola x wittrockiana 'Clear Crystals Mix' runs through deep purple, lavender blue, yellow, white and velvety red on compact, bushy plants. They look sharp in window boxes, pots and border edges, and the whole flower is edible: press them onto biscuits, scatter them over salads or freeze them in ice cubes.

Sowing and growing

  • Sow indoors February to March for summer flowers, or June to July for flowers in autumn and again in spring.
  • Sow on fine compost and cover very lightly, about 1.5 mm.
  • Germination takes 2 to 3 weeks at 15 to 20°C; keep seed trays out of high heat, which stops germination.
  • Prick out and plant 15 to 20 cm apart in sun or partial shade.
  • Grows to about 15 to 20 cm tall.
  • Flowers through summer from spring sowings, or autumn into spring from summer sowings. Deadhead to keep them flowering.
  • Hardy; usually grown as an annual or biennial.

What you receive: a packet of about 150 seeds from Piccolo Seeds, with growing instructions on the back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are pansy flowers edible?

Yes, the whole flower is edible and has a mild, slightly grassy taste. Pick fresh flowers from plants that have not been sprayed, rinse gently and use them on cakes, biscuits, salads and drinks. They can also be crystallised with egg white and sugar.

When should I sow pansy seeds?

Sow February to March for flowers through summer, or June to July for plants that flower in autumn, pause in the coldest weather and flower again in spring. Pansy seed germinates best in cool conditions, so avoid a hot windowsill in midsummer.

Do pansies come back every year?

Pansies are short-lived perennials but are usually treated as annuals or biennials, as plants get leggy and flower less after their first season. Fresh sowings each year give the best display.
