Lady Mary Elizabeth Bennett introduced the pansy to the world in 1812 by cross breeding a large variety of plants and came up with the pansy.  The next year two horticulturists continued to cultivate the pansy.  By 1833 there were 400 kinds of pansies available to gardeners.

Pansies are hardy little plants and are even available here in the Pacific Northwest as winter pansies that continue to grow and bloom during our mild winter months. 

When I discovered this lovely pansy background I knew I had to share it
