Beacon Impatiens Mix Seeds
About- Suitable for small spaces and container gardens, impatiens are usually grown as annuals. Showy white, violet, coral, orange, salmon, rose, and bright red blooms cover the plants non-stop all season. Resistant to Downy Mildew.
When and Where to Plant- Start indoors 10-12 weeks before your last frost. Seeds are extremely tiny! Use a moistened toothpick to pick up individual seeds. After danger of frost, transplant into fertile, well-draining soil enriched with organic matter in light to medium shade, keeping them out of direct sunlight. Closer spacing will encourage taller growth, while more distance between plants encourages them to spread out and fill in the gaps.
Care and Harvest- Keep well watered and protected from strong winds. Remove spent flowers to encourage reblooming.
