Can I replant impatiens plants now now (July 2/20/13 and expect to get plants to mature?

1 Answer

Answer :

Most Impatients don't like high heat and they need LOTS of water.  There is a variety that can tolerate some sun.  A good alternative is the periwinkle / vinca.  They have a similar look and love the heat, sun & some shade. The best thing is they re-seed & come back year after year.
