These impatiens are incredibly versatile and can be used in various garden settings. They are ideal as bedding plants, adding a splash of color to borders and flower beds. They also thrive in containers, such as tubs and hanging baskets, bringing beauty to patios, balconies, and other outdoor spaces. Furthermore, they can be grown as pot plants indoors, adding a touch of nature to your home. With an eventual height of just 15cm, these plants are well-suited for smaller spaces and won't overshadow other plants in your garden.
To cultivate these Impatiens, sow the seeds in a propagator on a windowsill or in a greenhouse at a temperature of approximately 18-20°C. Use firmed, good quality, finely sieved, moist compost. Ensure the seeds receive light but are shaded from direct sunlight. Germination typically takes 10-21 days. Once seedlings appear, transfer them 5cm apart in trays and grow them on in good light. Before planting them outdoors, gradually acclimatize the plants. Plant them out 23cm apart. Store seeds in a refrigerator if sowing is delayed.
Enjoy the colorful blooms of Suttons Impatiens Super Hybrid Mix from July to September. Also known as Busy Lizzies, these plants are a classic choice for adding continuous color to your garden. Their ease of growth and versatility make them a favorite among both novice and experienced gardeners.
