I love the tidbit about pansy's curing heartbreak- oh to have known that sooner in my girl's lives. Think of all the wonderful colors of tea!
Hi Koralee... I love Heartsease... they are the first flowers I buy here in Spring... my great~grandmother taught me the old~fashioned names and meanings of flowers... I love them! xoxo Julie Marie
hello sweet friend! thanks for the well wishes, i think the hubby is baking me a cake! love your pansies, they are lovely! you always make me smile :) xo suz

Beautiful. I used to plan them all the time in Texas......now we're in the Midwest and I don't think they'd make it.
Oh my, the only hint of spring over here are the bulbs on my windowsill... we are getting more rain/snow tomorrow... loking forward to spring though...

Can't wait 'til Pansy time of year, but that probably won't be until mid March. We still have a bunch of snow that needs to melt. I have loads of wild violets in my yard during the spring and summer.
So pretty! Is it spring yet?
ps I have a giveaway going on my blog. Stop by if you can to enter!
I planted some pansies in the Autumn and I thought the recent snow and freezing temperatures would have killed them off...but no..the little beauties are flourishing.I love their little smiling 'faces'!

LOVE pansies... they remind me of happy days with my grandmother!
Wow lucky you Springlike weather,lol.I havent felt anything like that at all here yet.I think Canada is warm this year because you sent the cold down here;)
I adore pansys as well.They love cool weather too.. not much for humidity those plants.I also plant them in the Spring.They are happy Flowers,so dainty looking.
So pretty I love spring flowers although I think our weather has some way to go yet, before we see any new shoots x
I love the little pansies... happy little flowers ♥
Your blog is such a happy one. It never fails to make me smile. I adore pansies and can't wait until spring!!

We've had a spring like day...note the use of the word 'day'; it was a Sunday, the sun shone....and then, as if a dream, it was gone.
We woke up on Monday to a milder day but with rain and darkness. Today, the frost appeared. But I'm hopeful because I heard some birds singing; it made me smile.
Pansies are beautiful, just like you. xx
I LOVE THEM...DO YOU KNOW THE SONG ABOUT THEM? MY MOM LOVED THEM AND SHE USED TO SING IT TO ME..."LITTLE PURPLE PANSIES TOUCHED WITH YELLOW GOLD, GROWING IN THE CORNER OF THE GARDEN OLD, WE ARE VERY TINY BUT MUST TRY TRY TRY, JUST ONE HEART TO GLADDEN, YOU AND I."
I DON'T KNOW IF WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER OR INTO THE JANUARY THAW...STILL NO SNOW HERE! COME SAY HI :D
Koralee, You have me humming springtime songs!! And dreaming of the Spring Garden. I love Pansies and sweet little Violas, I can't wait until our Farmer's Market has them in stock.
Have a lovely sunshiny day...
*kisses*
I love your "did you know's"!!! They always make me smile...and those flowers are beautiful!!! How beautiful I am sure they will be:)
Wish I had known that little tidbit about pansies and heartbreak a little sooner!

I love Pansises!!! And all the beautiful colors they come in.
Oh, how I wish it could be spring here too! I´ll have to wait a bit more....=(

Thank you for sharing.

Pansies just make me smile when I see them. They have to be the happiest flowers!
They hold such a special place in my heart because they were my sorority flower! Go Kappa Alpha Theta!! ;)

does it really cure heartbreak :)
had no idea that's what they were called.

Hi Koralee!
Pansies are my first spring purchase!
I love their tender sweetness~
It snowed 5" here on Sunday night... The temps today were warmer though (almost 40°F)...
Thank You, Koralee, for helping me smile through January with *pansies* in my heart!

Hi Koralee,
How wonderful that your weather is so wonderful! It's been crazy weather here this week. Pansies are such gorgeous, sweet flowers and I hope I never need tea made with their leaves.
Love and hugs,
Karyn
HI KORALEE,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVELY COMMENT. I AM SO HAPPY TO RECEIVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL AWARD. (MY FIRST) AND, FROM SUCH A FINE LADY, OUR DUCHESS OF TEA. YOUR PANSIES ARE SO PRETTY, OUR WEATHER IS SO COLD, THEY WOULD HAVE NEVER LASTED. HAVE A NICE DAY. RIZZI
Ahhh...pansies, my Mom's favorite. Unfortunately we have many months ahead before we can plant pansies.

Oh spring time. I can't wait until its warm enough to start planting here. Pansies are so pretty. Enjoy them and your spring like weather :)
Such a sweet sight for my tired eyes :)

these cute flowers always remind me of Disney's rendition of Alice in Wonderland!
Ooooo I'm so jealous you're having Springlike weather!!! Still LOTS of snow here! Pansies are one of my favs...we're a few months away from planting anything!
Happy Tuesday Koralee ~

I love pansies but I didn't know there were so many different names for them. They remind me of little faces.
WOW...your own garden. BEAUTIFUL!!

Oh I love pansies, Koralee,
I think that they are such happy flowers, don't you ? (Oh dear, I sound like Meg Ryan in 'You've got Mail' when she describes daisies !!) XXXX
I love pansies, they make me happy. You are planting in the garden already? In Canada?
I have a giveaway at my place today...check it out!

Pansies were my great grandmother's favorite. They always pleasantly remind me of her!
Isn't the weather amazing! I actually have my doors open and letting the sunshine in. Love your pansy photo..you really do have the best pics

I love pansies. They remind me of childhood.
You lucky girl, look how beautiful they are!! I will have to wait another 4 months to plant those beauties in my garden.

Pansies are so pretty! I'm so jealous you're getting spring weather!

Oh, SPRING! Longing for it, here! Beautiful pansies too!
I love pansies ... my sorority had them as their flower ... I like them before that and still plant them each Spring.
Pansies, in BC? You must get some warm and moderate breezes. They wouldn't last here in the lower midwest USA. You have a beautiful blog, I need to visit past posts. glad to find you!
Debra
I adore pansies. They're so cheerful and sweet, just like you!!

Blimey Koralee are you trying to curse this nice weather - planting a pretty flower is going to make it snow! heee hee. Just kidding. Pasies for the Olympics sound lovely to me! Vanoc won't like them though.
This is a beautiful photo!
Koralee you are just such a delight and your posts are just so endearing.
I LOVE pansies and so good to know that they can cure a heart break if I ever need one cured.
hugs
sweet!
