Professional Growing Information I Purchased two trays of these impatiens. Seven of the eight plants are doing beautifully, however, one has died. This film started shriveling at the base and slowly the whole plant has died from what appears to be a fungus. I planted these annuals in proven winners potting soil that was brand new. It’s disappointing to have paid over seven dollars for one says mall annual that has died.

Rockapulco impatiens are very easy to care for, provide them with a shady location, give them a bit of fertilizer and don't let them dry out too much and they will be happy campers. The shouldn't need to be trimmed back, but can be pruned to shape them at any time. If they get too tall, you can cut them back to promote additional branching and a more compact habit.
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
