Viola x wittrockiana Chalon Supreme Wildberry Mixed - Pansy Seeds
She takes her time to grow but the result is very satisfying, very beautiful and delicate flowers. Smaller than described, about 4-5 cm (2in) maximum, but it's a profusion of flowers that doesn't stop for several months. Survives the winter without any issues.

The 'Chalon Supreme Wildberry' Mixed variety stands out for the refined frill of its large crinkled and finely marginated flowers in garnet, purple, and violet shades—an original, whimsical, yet robust and floriferous pansy, magnificent in a pot.
This tender little flower with retro charm evokes the chromos of yesteryear. It is often undervalued because it is poorly used in public spaces, so it deserves a special place in the garden and windowsills.
Belonging to the Violaceae family, the Pansy, Viola x wittrockiana, is sometimes called the Giant Swiss Pansy. It is a perennial herbaceous plant, usually grown as an annual or even as a biennial. Pansies do not exist in the wild; they result from hybridisation between several species of violets. There are many varieties, all bearing adorable flowers with five maculate or immaculate petals and varying colours. The leaves are medium green, elliptical, and widely crenate, with a compact and ramified habit.
Pansies are not demanding; they will thrive in sun or partial shade in moderately rich and well-drained soil. You can sow Pansies from February to April for summer flowering or from June to August for flowering the following spring.
If you love them in the garden, they will be most appreciated in a planter or on a windowsill, so you can have them under your nose while staying warm. You can pair them with Sweet Caroline Ipomoeas, grass like Pennisetum setaceum Rubrum, or a large pot in the garden.
The petals of pansies are edible; their colours will bring a touch of originality to your salads and pastries. For this, think of growing them as you would grow your vegetables in the most natural way possible.

Botanical data
Calendar: Sow Pansies from February to April for summer flowering or from June to August for flowering the following spring.
In a tray filled with good sowing soil, bury the seeds to a depth of 1.5 mm (0in) and cover with, for example, a sheet of newspaper, as darkness is beneficial for germination. Maintain a temperature between 15 and 18°C (59 and 64.4°F) while moistening the soil. Germination takes between 14 and 21 days. Be careful of high temperatures, as they prevent the seeds from germinating.
When the seedlings are developed enough to be handled, transplant them into pots and let your plants grow, gradually acclimating them to outdoor conditions for about two weeks. Plant your Pansies in the garden, with a distance of 25/30 cm (10/12in) between each, in full sun or partial shade.
For late winter/early spring sowings, wait until the risk of frost has passed.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
