I harvested the seeds this morning. The flower was pollinated almost 15 months ago, on January 5, 2015. I will want to remember this . Seeds should be sown when fresh.

Edited to add: and I ordered "antique shades" pansies from Burpee yesterday. I have an idea that I will sow them indoors in August, set them outside to harden off in early October, and plant in the window boxes around Thanksgiving. I unserstand they overwinter well. We'll see...

Antique shades as in antique colours?

No, they're shaped like victorian lampshades...

They're antique-y colors, kind of faded.
