Good Morning Everyone,

Today, I am posting a shot of some pansies which are growing in my garden. They seem to have responded well to the recent interval of warm, sunny weather, and are nodding their heads merrily on the rockery.

Here is some worthwhile information about pansies from The Telegraph Int. Group:
Pansy and viola flowers follow the sun - or, on dull days, they follow the best light. Plant them where you look at them with the sun or light behind you - then their flowers will face you.

Winter pansies and violas will thrive in any good soil and appreciate plenty of sunshine. Plant plain-faced types en masse in beds and borders, and bicolours and whiskered types along paths and in containers where you can appreciate the delicacy of their pretty patterns.

Finally, the one thing that helps all pansies and violas give their very best is regular dead-heading. So as soon as the flowers fade, nip them off. Use kitchen scissors or thumb and forefinger.

Many thanks for your visit.
Please feel free to offer feedback on any aspect of the photograph. :-)

Hi Bev,
Nice and cheerful, excellent warm yellow collours. The presentation here is really "my cup of tea"; excellent. The blurry yellow spots in the blackframe is what I really like.
Great posting my dear!
