IMPATIENS SEEDS

The Impatiens genus, commonly known as Busy Lizzie, Touch-Me-Not, or Jewelweed, is a vibrant and adaptable member of the Balsaminaceae family. These herbaceous annuals and perennials are celebrated for their bright, five-petaled flowers in a wide range of colours, including pink, red, orange, white, and violet. Impatiens adds cheerful colour and a lush, tropical feel to shaded gardens, borders, and containers.

Native to tropical and temperate regions worldwide, Impatiens thrives in moist, well-drained soils and prefers shady to partially shaded locations. These low-maintenance plants are excellent for bringing life to shaded areas. Popular species such as Impatiens walleriana, commonly grown as a bedding plant, and Impatiens hawkeri, or New Guinea Impatiens, are particularly prized for their prolific blooms and ease of cultivation.

The Impatiens genus combines beauty, versatility, and ease of care, making it a perfect choice for gardeners seeking colourful, shade-loving plants that brighten their landscapes.
