Still giving! These pansies are so big, and such a beautiful variety. They never fail to make me smile.

I've managed to keep exactly one succulent alive for four years, but I think it's just some kind of super plant. It's finally starting to look a little done with life though :cry:
Succulents are the only thing I can keep alive, it's weird.....

Aww, pansies, they were my gran's favourite flowers, so I always think of her whenever I see pansies. :ponylove: I also sowed a few, but ours are tiny as they are a wild variety. Yours are so beautiful!

I am really good at killing plants, if I can just stick in the ground outside, though, I live in a lush area. It does the work for me.

I’ve never seen ones this big before! I didn’t even know they had giant ones, but these really are. <3
 
Ok. I know this thread is a little old. I’m just so very happy I could cry. These pansies, which I received from @skig in the Easter swap of 2020, voluntarily came back up. There are more every day and in such a vast array of color combinations. Every time I see them, they make me so, so, happy. Here’s some pictures from Monday. <3

the dark one is almost black and today, one came up that is purple around the edges then fades to yellow in the center. I can’t thank Skig enough for the joy these flowers are bringing me.
 
They are so beautiful (I love pansies!). <3 I've been trying to grow the black variety for two years now, without success, so I love seeing yours blooming so merrily.
 
@Tak your pansies are so pretty and a very welcome sign of spring.

Meanwhile here, we had a light dusting snow over night, I can’t wait for mid May when we can get our first plants into the ground. Hoping our veggie garden we made last year will thrive this year. *fingers crossed* It’s so nice to eat foods you e grown in your own backyard.

I like pansies too but they seem to grow a few wild. I never planted any its strange. I guess I did see one neighbor have pansies maybe the seeds flew over to my backyard. also my front yard has wildflowers and Im kinda the only one on my block that has them. :/

We’ve got pea pods, green beans, cucumbers, beets, and lettuce all sprouted now. We’ve never done watermelon, so those seeds are the ones we’re anxious for.

I tried planting watermelons a few years ago but it it got really cold just as they were starting to sprout and they didn’t end up growing. I hope it’s nice and warm for yours!

<fingers crossed> Me, too! It’s been crazy warm and dry this whole month. We were in the 80’s this last week. It’s supposed to get back to more normal mid 50‘s to mid 60’s on Saturday and a daily rain. I’m hoping that they will be ok. They are in a nice sunny spot.
