Remembering Pansies


The first flower I remember from my earliest memories is a pansy. But with seeing them in my mind comes the memory also of the lovely little fragrance that they have. Most people will say that they have no scent, but believe me they do. Every year when I go to buy my winter pansies I sniff and sniff until I find the pots with the most fragrant blooms. I think with all the hybridization that a lot of the fragrance hase been bred out, just like the roses you find in the florists' shop. Well anyways this is a pic of some of the pansies I found this winter.
