ALL ABOUT MATRIX® PANSIES
Matrix® Pansies are one of our favorites for cool season color. The striking blooms come in a wide variety of pansy colors and many different styles like blotch or clear. They are well-known for their consistent growth and large blooms. Matrix® Pansies easily fill flowerbeds and containers with decorative mass plantings of blooms that last from the fall through the early spring. They are low-maintenance and provide the most flowers per plant of any large-flowered pansy.
Planting for beneficial pollinators? Matrix® Pansies are frost tolerant with fragrant flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds to your landscape!
PANSY PLANTING & CARE TIPS
Matrix® Pansy flowers perform well in partial sun to full sunlight throughout the day. When planting in containers, use a well-draining soil like Calloway’s Premium Container Potting Soil.
Calloway’s Premium Container Potting Soil helps your pansy plants get the best start for healthier, continued growth. It contains water saving ingredients like Hydrogel water holding crystals, Expanded Shale and Coconut Coir for added moisture control. Additional ingredients include sphagnum peat moss, composted rice hulls, composted pine bark, earthworm castings, Dolomite lime, and trace elements. Our soil is Silicon Enriched™ to provide container plants with the same benefits as those grown in the Earth’s soil! Plus, our .2-.05-.1 professional formula contains a slow release fertilizer to help feed your plants for up to 6 months.
Water in thoroughly when planted and allow the water to drain out the drain hole. Water again when the top few inches of the soil feel dry to the touch.
