Description

Viola 'Matrix Rose Blotch' is a medium-sized hybrid pansy, bearing an abundance of deep pink to purplish pink flowers adorned with beautiful black macules. They appear over a very long period. The plants are compact and floriferous, with excellent resistance to cold, disease, and heat. This variety regrows well in spring and does not bolt with the first heat, ensuring a long and high-quality flowering. It is easy to grow in humus-bearing moist soil, in a sunny or semi-shaded position.

 

Garden pansies, sometimes called Swiss giant pansies, are hybrids grouped under Viola x wittrockiana. They belong to the Violaceae family and are most commonly grown as annuals or biennials, although they are theoretically short-lived perennials. The 'Matrix Rose Blotch' variety is a branching plant that quickly forms compact clumps, with a slightly spreading habit, reaching 20cm (8in) in height and 20 to 30cm (8 to 12in) in width. It flowers from late winter to late spring, or from late spring to late summer. 'Matrix Rose Blotch' pansies bear fully open medium-sized flowers, 4 to 5cm (2in) in diameter. The slightly fragrant blooms display a rich pink colour with purplish nuances, maculated with black at the base of the petals, and brightened by a tiny bright yellow and white heart. The medium green leaves are elliptical and widely crenate.

 

Pansies are wonderful in the garden, but they also work beautifully in a pot on a windowsill to be enjoyed up close. You can plant them with primroses, wallflowers, grape hyacinths, daisies, and even with grasses like Japanese sedge for a sculptural effect in a contemporary style. Combine them with heucheras and tulips. The bluish-green of glaucous fescues also highlights them well.

Pansy petals are edible, and their colours will bring a touch of originality to salads and pastries. For this use, think of growing them as you would grow your vegetables, in the most natural way possible.

 

Sold as 4cm (2in) x 2.5cm (1in) plug plants.

Please be aware that our plug plants are professional products intended for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, transplant them as soon as possible in pots and containers, or directly in flower beds.

Planting and care

Pansies thrive in humus-rich, neutral to acidic, moist and fertile soil. A quality horticultural compost will be very suitable. They appreciate a sunny or semi-shaded exposure. They are fast-growing and produce an abundance of blooms, making them hungry plants. They need to be fed with a liquid plant food for containers once or twice a week during the growth period. Water regularly but without excess. Regularly remove faded flowers to encourage new blooms.
