Sunpatiens

Decided to bring these inside to extend the growing season. They are SunPatiens, an impatiens hybrid between New Guinea impatiens and wild impatiens. True to their name, SunPatiens are sun-loving plants.

SunPatiens have a long bloom period stretching from spring to fall until a heavy frost. The plants are typically larger, bushier, and bloom more prolifically than New Guinea impatiens, and their thick petals and leaves make them more resistant to disease and damage1
