Description
The walleriana species is a very floriferous Impatiens with double flowers. Its flowers are salmon-coloured. It blooms from May to October.
Impatiens are the ideal plants to brighten up a shady or semi-shady corner. In a pot on a terrace or in a bed at the foot of a tree, they bring freshness, charm, and elegance. The double Walleriana impatiens have a compact and well-branched habit. The finely toothed, pointed oval leaves are shiny green.
They can also be grown indoors as perennials. In this case, they should be pruned back in spring.
Green plug plants measuring 4 to 8cm (2 to 3in) in packs of 5 small plugs with a diameter of 2.8cm (1in) and a height of 4cm (2in). Our plants are at least eight weeks old and are strong enough to be planted in the ground.
Note: Please be aware that our young plug plants are professional products reserved for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, transplant and store them in a sheltered location (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before being planted outdoors once the risk of frost has passed.

Planting and care
You can plant your Impatiens wallerianas in the ground or in a pot. If you want to plant them in the ground, wait until the frost has passed (impatiens cannot tolerate frost, even light frosts). In the meantime, you can pre-cultivate them in a pot in a warm and bright place to accelerate their growth (be careful, not too much direct sunlight). Plant your impatiens in a shaded or semi-shaded location. They need a fairly rich soil that retains moisture. They are sensitive to drought. They will need regular watering during hot summer weather. Very floriferous and fast-growing, they are hungry plants. We recommend feeding them with a liquid fertilizer for containers once or twice a week during the growing season. Remove faded flowers and dry leaves as they appear to keep them looking good and prolong the flowering. Be careful, remember to protect them from slugs that enjoy their young leaves.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
