New Guinea Impatiens

Image

New Guinea impatiens have larger leaves and larger flowers than the well known impatiens (or Busy Lizzy).

They are known as ‘Sun Patiens’ as they stand up to much more sun, and colours are vibrant oranges, reds and pinks.

Tip
Keep them well watered or else flowers will drop.
