Description

Waller's Impatiens is a classic shade-loving annual that blooms continuously from May until frost in shades of pink, red, orange, and white. It is highly frost-sensitive and thrives in semi-shaded, protected spots such as balcony boxes and beds beneath shrubs.

Care instructions

Start seeds indoors in February on a windowsill as a light starter, then transplant outdoors after the last frost (mid‑May). Place the plant in semi‑shade; it does not tolerate heavy midday sun. Water generously and evenly, ensuring the root ball never dries out. Withered flowers drop off on their own; no deadheading is necessary.
