Question: Which types of pansies are better, the very large-flowering ones, or the types that have smaller flowers, but more of them?

Answer: Most commercial landscapers plant the “multiflora” types that cover themselves in blossoms. The larger types are best in small spaces near an entry, where you can enjoy each individual flower. They’re also better for use as cut flowers in shallow vases. Don’t overlook the small-flowering violas and Johnny-jump-ups as well.
