Cool Wave® Morpho Spreading Pansy

Cool Wave® Morpho is a spreading, trailing pansy with blue flowers marked by yellow accents. Cooler nights deepen the blue, while warmer conditions can make the petals lighter and broaden the yellow face. ### In the garden Use this pansy along borders, over a low wall, or where its trailing stems can spill from a hanging basket or patio container. The [PanAmerican Seed product profile](https://www.panamseed.com/products/046706339010128/spreading-pansy-cool-wave-morpho/) lists the named selection, its cool-season flowering, and its compact height with broad spread. The [Wave Gardening profile](https://www.wavegardening.com/en-us/Flowers/PlantInformation?phid=046706339010128) describes the flower color and offers container and site-use ideas. ### Growing conditions Plant in full sun or part shade in humus-rich soil that stays moist while draining freely. The [North Carolina Extension pansy profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/viola-x-wittrockiana/) describes these conditions and suggests bedding, borders, mass plantings, containers, and hanging baskets. Pansies attract butterflies and other pollinators, and their flowering period can extend over several months in cool weather. ## Maintenance Water regularly enough to keep the root zone evenly moist, especially in containers. Remove faded blooms to encourage a tidier display and monitor plants as hot weather arrives; cool-season pansies often decline in summer heat.
