    I much prefer violas because of their daintyness. Pansies are "a bit in your face" for me 

  • I go for Violas usually but the colour mix of Pansies is much more varied. I like and sometimes grow both.

  • I love violas too, I planted winter viola bedding plants in baskets and tubs in October and they are still flowering, despite being covered in 4 inches of snow at one point!   In  the past couple of weeks they have really gone crazy and look beautiful!  I have never bothered with winter bedding plants before so wasn't expecting much, and have been amazed at how strong willed violas are.  Does anyone know how much longer they will flower for?

    Tickling violas now are you Verd. Are you still on your medication love?.....image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
  • Interesting, we grow many different Violas and Pansies and have done for over twenty years.You will not see these anywhere else they are our own strain and go into the hundreds of different strains our website is designerpansies.co.uk the site only shows a tiny amount of our plants and does need updating but we would be only too happy to email pics of different violas and pansies that I can guarantee you will never know existed.Must admit to answer the question its Violas for me,
