(=‘PAS733571') This hybrid series, part of the Sorbet® series, is more tolerant of summer heat and winter cold than the annual pansy types. This selection produces white upper petals, white petals splashed with yellow in the middle and yellow lower petals. Excellent for massing, edging, rock gardens and hanging baskets and other containers. Nice for combining with spring flowering bulbs. Trim plants back by half in early June. Flowers are fragrant. Nice compact habit. Sometimes these will flower all winter in climates with mild weather. All pansies and violas have edible flowers.
