Probably the nation’s favourite annual bedding plant A trio of garden beauties offered as generous, double-flowering delights in shades of rich red, deep pink and delicate pastel. The Incredible Glimmer Impatiens walleriana Collection will flower prolifically above a mound of simple, deeply veined and toothed, verdant foliage which is held from March to October. Flowers emerge in May and are multi-layered, akin to miniature roses, adding neat and generous form to pots, hanging baskets and border edges. Incredible Glimmer Impatiens walleriana Collection is made up of ‘Double Appleblossom’ – with pretty, pastel pink colouration which is more intense towards the flower centre; ‘Double Hot Pink’ with a uniformity of colour and a sizzle not to be missed; and ‘Double Bright Red’ – a scarlet wonder, petals have a paler underside adding glimmering impact. Plant in moist, well-drained soil of an type which benefits from full sun or partial shade. Plant with any aspect other than north-facing.
