Do pansies not tolerate hot temperatures?


Our Advice:

Pansies are cool-weather plants and can struggle to tolerate hot temperatures. If your pansies are not tolerating hot temperatures, consider providing some shade during the hottest part of the day, as well as watering them regularly and deeply to prevent them from drying out. You can also try moving your pansies to a cooler location or providing some additional cooling, such as misting the plants or placing a fan nearby.
