I am Dessarose. I am a beginner at gardening. I have just moved from a large, busy city to the quiet, slow running country town. One of my two requirements of coming to the country was to have a beautiful garden. But, I have some draw backs to starting a garden is helpers and other problem, of which you may guess as I go along.
Now to one of the best flowers I have planted this year, thus far is the Impatiens. I got a crate of the flowers, mostly in the pinks and purples. I know now I did not buy enough to make my bed look awesome, so next year it will be fuller and more flowers everywhere. Impatiens are the sturdy and long lasting. They give the flower bed a very colorful attitude. When they were first planted I thought they were puny and wobbly. But it didn't take them long to grow into some green plants. The like a shady area, but they also like a little light, mostly morning sun.
The ground needs to be kept moist, but must have a good drainage. Remember that is you plant them in a pot. They do make lovely pots. In the area I live it gets colder faster. So one, our first cold front, I was afraid they might not make it but with a little help from my husband and myself, we covered the plants with garbage cans. The next day the blooms that had arrived late-came lovely pink and purple flowers.Now with the evening still rather cool for me, my Impatiens are still blooming strong. Hope yours do as well as mine!!
