Name: Variegated forms of Impatiens hawkeri aka New Guinea Impatiens
Type of Plant: Low-maintenance annual that grows to about 12 inches tall.
Why I Love/Hate this plant: I’m loving the variegated form of this very useful annual because you get green and yellow foliage and the colorful flowers. This is a bright plant for places where you want color, color and color all summer.
A Word to the Wise: Plant these in groups of 5 or more. They are so brilliant that if planted in smaller groups they will become “dots” in the garden that draw attention without adding drama. More is more with this brilliant plant.

Best in part-sun or part shade.
