Jim's Favorite Impatiens Flower Seeds

Impatiens Seed ( Annual )

Impatiens flowers are bright and cheerful annuals that can light up any dark and shady part of your yard.
You can use impatiens flowers as bedding plants, border plants or in containers. They enjoy moist but well draining soil and partial to deep shade.
They do not do as well in full sun, but if you would like to plant them in full sun, they will need to be acclimated to the harsher light. You can do this by exposing the impatiens plants to increasing amount of sunlight over the course of a week.

You can plant impatiens flowers quite close to one another, inches apart if you like. The closer they are planted together, the faster the plants will grow together to form a bank of lovely impatiens flowers.

Impatiens flowers do best if fertilized regularly. Use water soluble fertilizer on your impatiens every two weeks through spring and summer. You can also use slow release fertilizer at the beginning of the spring season and once more half way through summer.
Impatiens do not need to be deadheaded. They self-clean their spent blooms and will bloom profusely all season long.
