Pansies don't grow as well in saltwater as they do in normal distilled water because the roots take in water through the roots by a process call osmosis,which is a process through which ONLY water travels through a semipermeable membrane into the cell. Therefore the salt molecules ''clog'' the membrane and makes the water molecules unable to get to the plant to go through photosynthesis.
