i planted winter pansies in november and all the flowers died within a week when we had heavy rain  >:( i left the plants in the ground will they flower again or should i just compost them?

Providing the plants are still healthy they'll flower as soon as it gets a bit warmer, and certainly in early spring. Winter pansies often sulk in winter, I'm afraid  :)

Ginger I did the same!

My flower tub looked great for a couple of weeks, then the flowers were over.  However, they are now established plants and will steal a march on the newly planted ones!! ;)

I hope! :-\

Hi gingerninja38, winter flowering pansies generally stop flowering about November and start up again in March. If you want something similar that WILL flower all winter try violas.

I planted both this winter, the pansies are very sad but will perk up, the violas look stunning, I think they were called Blackcurrant Sundae, they have put on a really good show ever since they were planted. I would definitely recommend them.
