Honey, I shrunk the pansies! - June 25th, 2005 at 02:07 AM
Hi all!
I purchased a few giant pansies earlier this season and they have been doing well, pretty much. I water them, pinch off the faded blooms and have fertilized them once with the plant sticks for flowering plants. They are in a planter, not the ground.
Although they continue to bloom, I recently realized the flowers are getting progressively smaller, and the plants are getting leggier. (My potted petunias are getting awful tall, too--although they are still blooming profusely)
