Pansy Cool Wave Mix

While they are specifically bred for their trailing habit in hanging baskets and elevated containers, they can be planted in the ground. Keep in mind that their 24-inch spread means they will act as a ground cover rather than a traditional upright bedding plant.

Each packet contains 15 seeds. For a lush, full look in a 12-inch basket, we recommend using 3 to 5 seeds per container to ensure the trailing effect is balanced without overcrowding.

The Cool Wave series is bred for vigor, but like most pansies, they perform best in cooler temperatures. While they are designed to bloom from spring through fall, you may need to provide afternoon shade or extra water during the peak heat of mid-summer to keep them thriving.

These are annuals. They are designed to complete their full life cycle—growing, blooming, and trailing—within a single season.

One of the best features of the Cool Wave series is its low-maintenance nature. While removing spent blooms can encourage even more flowers, these plants are vigorous enough to maintain a consistent display throughout the season without constant deadheading.
