Plant pansies in a location that receives partial sun and well-drained soil. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, providing deep watering rather than frequent shallow watering. Fertilize pansies every 2-3 weeks with a balanced fertilizer. Deadhead spent flowers regularly to promote continuous blooming. Watch out for pests like slugs and aphids and take appropriate pest control measures. Introduce mulch around the plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest blooms as desired, cutting just above a leaf node to encourage new blooms.
