Why pansies? To us, purple (the color for pancreatic cancer) pansies capture the hopefulness and promise of spring. Thanks to Russell's and Bell's you can harness the promise and provide hope to those who yearn for early diagnosis, better treatment and ultimately a cure for pancreatic cancer. So celebrate spring and enjoy the flowers, planting the seeds for research that will blossom.Want your garden center to participate? Click here for the details on the program. Questions?
