April 26, 2024Q.Impatiens Morsei
My leaves have died and laying on my floor. I’ve tried indirectly sun 5 hrs a day. Then I’ve tried under my plant grow light. I watered a little; I’ve tried watering and left it out to drain. I don’t have anything else to try. Only had plant 5 months. What do I need to do?

May 4, 2024Q.Planting Impatiens
I live in McKinney tx in zone 8a. I get sun on my balcony from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. I want to plant impatiens in a flower box on my balcony. Can you tell me if that will be too much sun and heat in the summer.

Certified ExpertA.That will be too much sun for regular impatiens but there is a type called Sunpatiens that can tolerate quite a bit of sun.

Certified ExpertA.There shouldn't have been anything else in with the impatiens unless you bought about a pound mix. It may be a weed that was in the soil and germinated when you disturbed the soil. You can remove it before it takes over.

Certified ExpertA.You can grow them as houseplants during the winter, then move them outside in spring. If you don't have a sunny, south location for them inside, you may need to add a grow light or they will get leggy. Keep pinching them back to increase fullness.
