You're just a pansy!

"You're just a pansy."  This phrase is commonly used and one must wonder, how strong is a pansy?  I always laugh when someone else compares someone to a pansy.  Let's be honest, pansies are quite possibly one of the strongest flowers!  They bloom in the harshest months of the entire year!  I've even seen pansies bloom with snow on top of them.  So if you think about, when you call someone a pansy you're actually complementing them!  Next time you truly want to call your friends weak, just call them a fuchsia!

Pictured below is Viola 'Sorbet Lemon Chiffon', which is one of my favorites!
