Pansies not flowering yet

in Plants
Hey all. I planted some pansy seeds (‘Adonis’) at the beginning of March. No sign of flowering yet. Is it too early? Not sure how long they take from sowing.

Pic below is of last years plants which survived the winter. I cut them back in maybe late March early April. Now flowering again.
Last years plants were my first go at pansies from seed and I think GD is right about the summer flowering time for March sown seed.
My best guess for earlier flowers next year would be to sow in early autumn maybe? That might have been around the time those self seeders dropped into that pot unknown to me.
