With a flowering habit as reliable as a Swiss clock, these vibrant blooms first emerge in May and continue blooming through to September for five months of splendid colour. Blooms are large and held on multiple branches which also produce darker, dramatic foliage from March to November time. New Guinea Impatiens Deep Dark Trio is comprised of hawkeri ‘Clockwork Bicolor Lilac’, hawkeri ‘Clockwork Bicolor Orange’; and hawkeri ‘Clockwork Orange Improved. The ‘Clockwork’ range is a recent development which has been bred not only for large, abundant and beautiful blooms but also extra resilience to mildew and a robust, generous branching habit for more flowers which are generous in size. A reliable and exceptionally colourful variety to add to pots, baskets and borders. Plant New Guinea Impatiens Deep Dark Trio in any rich, moist, well-drained soil. Happy in either sun or shade with any aspect other than north facing. These tender plants are most frequently grown as annual, summer beddi
