Cultivation method:
Sow directly outdoors after the last frost, or start seeds indoors in early April for best results. Press seeds into the soil without covering them, as they require light to germinate. Maintain a constant temperature of 20°C (70°F) and allow 5 to 10 days for germination.
When seedlings are strong enough, grow them under lights and harden them off before transplanting outdoors in late May. Plant them in well-drained soil, spacing each plant 10 cm (4") apart. Impatiens prefers partially shaded areas in warm climates and sunny locations with cool summers.
A light shearing after the first bloom will encourage a new flush of flowers, ensuring a vibrant garden all summer long.
An ideal choice to beautify your spaces!
Adaptable to a wide range of conditions, this Impatiens mix will bring a burst of color to your shady spaces, while requiring little maintenance. Perfect for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
