Deer love to eat Impatiens. They just ate our neighbors Impatiens last night....barely a one left! !
Rabbits and deer have eaten impatiens in my garden before, when planted around the base of a tree.
Probably not but it depends on where it lives.
My pet sheep will not eat Azaleas,Impatiens, Rosemary or Lavender.
Impatiens hawkeri was created in 1886.
Bombus impatiens was created in 1863.
Coprinellus impatiens was created in 1821.
Impatiens platypetala was created in 1846.
Impatiens grow best in part to full shade.
The New Guinea impatiens are a wonderful choice when used as hanging flowers and in the pots.
It depends. I have found that most impatiens prefer shade, and need water, especially if they are in a pot. New Guinea impatiens can take full sun, but again, watering is very important.
Yes Impatiens are consider an annual flower. However if you live in hardiness zones 9-11, that will grow as a perennial.
You should plant three (3) Impatiens Plants per 8" container.
