I planted pansies back in the beginning of march, when the tulips emerged. Pansies like the cold and I thought they wouldn't last very long but, hey, they were only $1.49 at Freddy's.
You guys, this one is still alive. It's nibbled at and kind of mangy looking, but it survived the spring monsoon, incredible heat, and a ton of neglect.
I will probably reward its tenacity by accidentally running it over with a wheelbarrow.
