SunPatiens® Compact Neon Pink Impatiens Care Be sure to wait to plant SunPatiens Compact Neon Pink Impatiens until there is no more chance for spring frost. Give the plant fertile soil that drains well and has compost or other organic matter. If planting in a container, new, general-purpose potting mix will suit the plant fine. If the mix has slow-release fertilizer in it, you won’t need to fertilize at planting. After that, fertilize a few times during the growing season, especially if growing the plant in a container. Water impatiens plants regularly. Container-grown impatiens dry out faster than those grown in beds. Peak heat and full sun also can dry the plant out more quickly, so watch for conditions and soil moisture when deciding whether to water. There is no need to prune or deadhead your impatiens. Once planted, it needs only watering and occasional fertilizing. SunPatiens® Compact Neon Pink Impatiens Spacing Space SunPatiens 8 to 12 inches apart so they have room to grow. Choose closer spacing if you want the plants to grow a little taller, and space them further apart for a more mounded appearance.SunPatiens® Compact Neon Pink Impatiens InformationUSDA Hardiness Zones: 10-11 Flower Color(s): Pink Flower Description: Neon Pink Bloom Period: Planting To Frost Foliage Color(s) Green Light Exposure: Partial Sun to Full Sun Height Class: Medium Height: 16-30 Inches Spread: 14-20 Inches Spacing: 8-12 Inches Habit: Mounded Watering: Average Drought Tolerant: No Container Role: Filler Use Types: Container, Landscape Features: Low Maintenance, Deadheading Not Necessary Maintenance: Easy Scientific Name: Impatiens x hybrida ‘SAKIMP033’ USPP 26,669 Common Name: SunPatiens® Compact Neon Pink Impatiens Other Name(s): Plant Type: Annual Brand: Proven Winners
