Panola Panache!

Innovated by Waller Seed, the Panola Panache F1 hybrid gives you the best of both Pansies and Violas. Panolas have the free flowering characteristics of Violas but with larger flowers. Seven stunning colors present flowers 1½" to 2" across. Plants are compact with short flower stems to reliably present blooms even under the rainiest days and warmest springs. In mass plantings, plant them about 8" apart.

Light requirement: A cool, yet full sun location suits Panola Panache. Plants are very winter hardy and will flower until the worst summer heat makes them dormant.

Water and fertilizer: Panache, like Violas, will tolerate just about any soil. However, best growth occurs in good, fertile flower beds. Composts and mulches help keep the soil moist and warmer in the winter. Be sure to combat slugs and snails on a regular schedule. Use any quality garden fertilizer for vigorous growth and flowering.

Suggested uses: Ideal in flower beds and patio containers.
