Non Blooming Impatiens

Question

I have bought and grown impatiens for many years and never had any problems. This year they’re planted in pots using Miracle Grow Moisture Control potting soil, as I am now in Nashville, TN. They have plenty of buds but are not blooming. I used Miracle Gro starting fertilizer and then regular Miracle Gro fertilizer since then every other week, but nothing except buds.

Answer 1

The most common reason is that there is not enough light. They do need shade but bright shade..........if in too dark of a location, they often bud but do not blossom. Hope that helps.
