I live in the South, previoysly New Orleans, now NW Florida, but also lived 9 years in England and in NC and Oregon. Pansies are winter hardy! Yes, they survive snow and usually ice, even if they look scrawny for a short time as weather warms, they do fine! Many plants need plastic or bedsheets, I've even used an old rug, just something to insulate them. Here in NW Florida Mandevillea and Tropical Hibiscus are not even hardy. I use a rug on one and an old comforter on the other. But NOT PANSIES! Better to plant in late fall, but as longvas it's before the ground freezes, you're fine, they're fine! And the article below says fertilize in winter every 2 wks with high NO3 liquid fertilizer. I didn't even do that and mine were fine and stunning once the weather then the ground warmed up. GOOD LUCK!
