Pansies vs. Violas

What is the difference between pansies and violas? Stephen Black, owner of Westwood Gardens, talk about the similarities and differences of these cool-season annuals.

[@Jojodancer1978]

Thank you. Beautiful plants. I accidentally bought violas thinking they were pansies, so it's nice to know the benefits of having them.

Very nice video of the garden and flowers

Can we plant them together in the same pot

[@Anonymously4051]

Deers love both violas and pansies.

[@gingercarper5073]

How can I rehabilitate dehydrated violas that are very long and stringy at all the stems?

[@tryingtobarefruitinoldage9878]

Me to.

[@ittsacrazyworld]

I was going to try cutting mine short and see what happens. I have Johnny Jumps Ups everywhere right now. So pretty. There are so many white purple yellow blue white shades of color that replanted themselves after I emptied the dirt from a big pot a few years ago. They are such beautiful ground cover right now so I left them but I know they will eventually get tall and leggy as summer gets warmer.

Huh. I've gotten some big pansy-sized blooms on my viola. Not a whole lot, but they have occurred.

[@candaceleroy4150]

I was thinking same thing, I think he has it backwards, my Violas are bugger than my pansies

[@ittsacrazyworld]

Are violets the same family?

[@jakidennison5076]

[@TresCherBelle]

Are the petals edible?

[@jmckphotography]

Only eat what you’ve grown from seed- you don’t want to accidentally ingest pesticides. 😬

[@jennasandlilzblogchannel2803]

Wait. Hold on. Plant in the Fall and they’ll survive through the winter? This clearly isn’t Canada. 😳

Please ditch that terrible music. It's twice as loud as the vocals. It doesn't suit the video at all either.
