More about this plant
Cool Wave White is a white spreading pansy that can show a little blue. Cool Wave is a spreading pansy series, low and full, that trails out of baskets, window boxes and patio planters or covers ground in beds, reaching 6 to 8 inches tall and 24 to 30 inches wide in sun, with superior overwintering hardiness. Pansies prefer full sun to part shade in humus-rich soil that stays consistently moist but drains well. Plant in fall for winter and early spring bloom; deadheading prolongs flowering, and plants decline once summer heat arrives.
