Grow a garden filled with Swiss Giants Pansy, from freshly harvested Viola wittrockiana flower seeds. Swiss Giants is comprised of gorgeous, 3 inch paper like flowers in shades of red, rose, yellow, blue, purple and white. The plants reach a mature height of about 6 to 8 inches tall, making it a great flower for beds, pots, containers, window boxes and baskets.

Swiss Giants is a pretty hardy plant, grown to bloom in cooler temperatures of fall and winter. It is grown as an annual flowering plant that establishes quickly from flower seeds, blooms profusely, then later dies with very harsh temperatures. Sought after as an edible flower, the colorful blooms are often added to salads and used as a garnish.

Sowing The Seed

Pansy seeds are best started indoors in a controlled environment. Sow the seeds in peat pots, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost, at a shallow depth of 1/16" under topsoil. Transplant entire peat pots or direct sow outdoors when the weather is warm and all danger of frost has passed. (Keep in mind that direct light is required for successful germination, which is why the seeds should only be sown at a shallow depth.)

Growing Conditions

Pansy seeds and plants will thrive in an area of full sunlight to light shade, in cooler temperatures of at least 65F to 70F. The soil should be rich & fertile and also well drained. To improve drainage, it is recommended that you mix any hard, compact soil with a light compost. Water the sowing area daily so that the topsoil is moist until germination occurs. Water regularly thereafter, but avoid drowning.

Germination & Growth

The Pansy seeds will begin to sprout open within 7 to 21 days after sowing. The plants will reach a mature height of roughly 6 to 8 inches tall and can be spaced about 6 to 8 inches apart. The Swiss Giants Mix produces a beautiful mixture of colors including rose, pink, purple, blue and yellow. Excellent choice for pots & containers, window boxes, flower beds and baskets.

Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2021
Update 3/16/21: I started these seeds back on 1/20/21 and it’s been almost 2 months now and they’re looking great! The root systems are strong and I feed them a diluted 20-20-20 fertilizer 2-3 times per week. I plan to plant them in the ground in about 3 more weeks once I harden them off.

I bought these despite the reviews. Mine germinated great! I overseeded about 2-3 seeds in each cell and have had good results. I do have a few cells that didn’t germinate, so then that could probably be solved by overseeding with 4-5 seeds in each cell, but for the most part I probably have had 95% or more of germination since some cells had multiple seeds germinate. Mine are about 5 weeks old and are looking healthy. I give them a diluted fertilizer twice each week and ensure I give a few days for the soil to dry out some in between waterings. I noticed the directions say they need light; however, pansies actually need darkness to germinate. Once the first couple of seeds have germinated then light can be provided and the rest will continue to germinate. I also didn’t use a humidity dome but ensured they were misted regularly to maintain moisture. This kept the temperatures lower for them which they prefer for germination.
