One of the first flowers I start indoors during the early part of the growing season is Impatiens. Impatiens (Walleriana) will dazzle in the shaded areas of your gardens landscape, they are compact vibrant plants that are great for borders, performing magnificently in containers and hanging baskets. Impatiens are capable of reaching heights of 14 inches while producing 1 to 2 inch blooms of exotic florets. They resemble miniature roses and literally sparkle in the shade. Because Impatiens are slow to develope, I plant seeds in late January for plants that should began to bloom from early summer until first frost. Cheers
