How to fertilize American field pansy

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your American field pansy after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Flowers are wilting but leaves are ok A few days indoors, after buying it in a store, the flowers started wilting. I am watering every other day to keep the soil moist, but I don't know if it's helping. I read somewhere here that they like direct sun and cool weather, so now they are in my balcony. What else can I do to save them? #WildPansy
