Pansies Are for Thoughts

I’ve always been fascinated by the Victorian language of flowers.  Pansies are for thoughts.  They can be given to someone you admire, in a platonic fashion, or someone you have deep feelings for and love.  Pansies can also represent free thinking and compassion.  They are often featured in Victorian motifs.  They’ve long been my favorite flower.  They appear so delicate, but they are very hardy and frost resistant, making them the perfect flower to plant in early spring and fall when the threat of frost looms.  Their faces are so bright in cheery, just what we need after a long winter to chase the doldrums away. 

Duck Creek Gardens currently has a plethora of pansies and violas for sale.  Yellow, purple, orange, white, pale pink, burgundy and white are waiting to cheer up your garden.  Pre-potted, flats and single pants are available.  My favorites are the frizzled varieties, with their unique jagged edges.  I wonder if they are named after the fizzled bangs of yore?  The best part about shopping local at Duck Creek Gardens is they will load your vehicle for you, unlike the big box stores.  Stop by to add a little cheer to your life today and don’t miss their customer appreciation day coming up on Saturday April 23^rd, 2022, form 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.  Check out the food, live music, door prizes, demonstration, games, fun, and…of course…pansies!
