If you can only find pansies in larger nursery pots (more often in  the fall than spring) and want to save a few dollars, you can divide it  to get more plants from them. 

Here’s how to do it.

Remove the plant from the nursery container.

With a hand trowel or even your fingers, divide the plant into small sections.

Then plant them in the garden or planters.

Water and fertilize well.

Because pansies are so readily available, I recommend just buying them when nurseries get them in. I love to grow lots of plants from seed,  but pansies are not one of them. For me, I’d rather use my indoor  growing space for flowers that are not readily available for purchase than ones I can easily buy at the garden nursery.
