Product description

This six pack of Impatiens Beacon Bright Red bedding plants will create a long-lasting display with a bold red colour theme. This long-awaited and brand-new Impatiens Beacon range is now providing high resistance to downy mildew disease which affected these popular plants in the past. Growing out of bushy, spreading mounds, they are incredibly easy to grow, free flowering and will thrive equally well in full sun or shaded areas. Fill your flower beds, hanging baskets and patio containers with these stunning Busy Lizzies and show off their colourful blooms from spring to frost.

Plant in moist, well-drained, moderately fertile soil in full sun or part-shade and feed regularly through the summer. Impatiens do not need to be deadheaded as they will self-clean their spent blooms.

Please Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold. Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

Instructions

Top Tip

Deadhead occasionally to keep plants tidy, although many varieties are self-cleaning. Feed every two weeks with a balanced fertiliser to encourage lush growth and non-stop flowering in shady spots throughout the summer.

How to Water

Water regularly to maintain moist soil, especially during dry spells. Impatiens are thirsty plants and benefit from consistent moisture but dislike sitting in soggy soil, so ensure good drainage. Container-grown plants may need daily watering in warm weather.

How to Plant

Plant Impatiens bedding plants in fertile, moist but well-drained soil in partial or full shade. These compact, bushy plants are perfect for shaded borders, containers, and underplanting, bringing dense colour where sun-loving plants may struggle. Space them 20–25cm apart for a seamless display.
