Pansies are a great choice for Central Texas winters! A good time to plant is usually Oct. 15 to Nov. 1 but it really depends on the soil temperature. Plant pansies when the soil temperature is between 45 and 70 degrees F. If you plant too early–when the soil is above 70 degrees–you’ll wind up with leggy plants, yellowish leaves and few flowers.
