    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Fresh, bright, light green lush foliage on rhizomatous stems to 2’ tall, spreading to 3’or more; exquisite shell pink flowers have interiors marked with dark salmon and a wash of gold in summer. Typical Impatiens culture...bright shade, well drained, humus rich, moist soils with limited root competition. Also nice in a pot but reduces hardiness.
