PANSY SEED ess AUTUMN SOWING 
To have the earliest flowers, Pansy seeds should be sewn in the fall, any time from August to November. 
They are quite hardy and all the winter protection they need is a little brush or straw to keep the snow 
from pressing too heavily upon them. If you want Pansy blooms early in the spring, TRY THIS PLAN.
