Description
Sow indoors, from April to July, to flower the same year, 0.5 cm (1/4-inch) deep, in a tray of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame or greenhouse. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Keep moist. Transplant to other trays, 5 cm (2 inches) apart, when large enough to handle. Always hold by a leaf, never by the stem. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions, before planting out to flowering positions in well-drained soil, between August and October, 20 cm (8-inches) apart. Or, sow thinly, outdoors, between May and July, in a seed bed, into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 5 cm (2-inches) apart, before planting out, from August to October, to flowering positions. Enjoythe flowers from October to June.
Hints and Tips: Remove dead heads to prolong the flowering season. Plants will not stay in bloom if the winter is severe, but will restart when conditions improve.

They sprouted but all died. They are hard to start from seeds. I tried twice. First time nothing. Second time sprouted but died. This may have something to do with me as I have never started pansies from seed. However, overall result was disappointing.
