Colossus Lemon Shades Pansy is a vigorous perennial with a dense and tight, non-stretching habit and dark green leaves. The extra large upward facing flowers are soft shades of lemon and bloom from fall through spring in mild winters. Prefers full sun and moist well-drained soils. The Colossus series has improved heat and humidity tolerance and can tolerate a hard freeze if the soil is not dry, otherwise may experience dieback in harsh winters to return in spring.
