Care & Maintenance

Light: Thrives in full sun or partial shade. Ensure it receives adequate light to maximize continuous bloom density throughout the season.
Watering: Water regularly to keep the root zone evenly moist. While more drought-tolerant than traditional impatiens once rooted, consistent hydration ensures the largest flowers and freshest foliage.
Feeding: Feed every 2 to 3 weeks with a balanced, liquid flowering plant fertilizer or slow-release granules to maintain vigorous flowering.
Grooming: Naturally self-cleaning; simply trim back lightly if you wish to reshape the mound after extended periods of heavy growth.
