Decadent double flowers of silky, ruffled burgundy speckled with a golden eye. Frizzle Sizzle Burgundy' is a real show stopper of a pansy - even the foliage with its little indents, calls for closer inspection. With F1 hybrid vigour and winter hardiness, this is a great bedding or pot plant that is early to flower.
How to care for Viola × wittrockiana Frizzle Sizzle Burgundy F1 (Frizzle Sizzle Series):
Seedlings should be potted up and grown on in a frost-free environment, such as well-lit windowsill or unheated greenhouse. Pot-grown plants however can be planted out or potted up into compost or well-drained, humus-rich soil that is neither frozen nor prone to waterlogging.Keep well watered, and feed with a good, high potash fertiliser (such as Tomorite) on a regular basis. Pinching off the spent flowers will encourage more to form. Protect young plants from slug damage using environmentally friendly slug pellets or beer traps.
Sowing instructions:
Late winter, spring and autumn sowings can be done in a cold frame, into trays of good seed compost and gradually hardened off before planting out. Alternatively sow directly into a well-prepared seed bed in late spring to early summer, or in autumn. Gently thin the seedlings out to 15cm apart when they are large enough to handle.
